Expecting our first piglets: Babies are here

[Baymule]

Your pig herd just grew! Are you keeping the gilts? Cute, cute, cute stripey little pigs!

Congrats there on a successful farrowing! I'd guessed 9 but 11 is much better!

Now Im off to bed..Something tells me I will sleep good.

 

[Bruce]

Just like Priss. You are both worn out!

I got an update from my dad as I am in class, looks like everyone is doing great. Priss is up and eating and drinking, babies are swarming as they do.

I know right! I mean I knew we had at least six, but 11?! I was blown away. As for the gilts I would like to retain one, but we already have the young 5m old Pearl and Emmy so we will see. I know we will castrate most of the boars and grow them out for consumption, and we will definitly sell a few. Oh and Pearl and Emmy need a few more months before they are big enough to breed. You should have heard the three older piggies last night. They were like, what the heck are those noises?!

 

[Bruce]

Those little suckers sure are cute, never have seen striped pigs before.

You suppose the older piggies have forgotten baby talk?

 

[Sumi]

Oh my goodness, they are beautiful!

As promised better pictures, with more to come tonight.

A mothers patience

Look at those ears

I think the milk bar is full

My favorite picture I took last night!

Priss is very protective and would be very on/off about letting me near the babies. Its killing me that I cant get too close but I know that her protective nature is a sign of being a good mama.
