All this rain has caused some major mud, as well as washing out a large hole under the fence for the little ones to galavant about. Thankfully if you chase them with a 2x4 they will go back in their enclosure.
So did you have to try different things, think on it for awhile, or did you just snatch the first thing that came to hand and go chase some piggies?

I tried shooing them with my hands, then tried nudging them with with boots. They were determined to stay out so then there was a small plank of wood leaning against the fence so I grabbed it and gently tapped them back into the pen.

Talk about ugh, can you spot what is wrong in this photo? In reality we prefer them getting into this pig area. After Christmas this pen will get finished so it is safe for all of the pigs.

So the new bunch of pigs dont have a shelter which for most animals would be a problem but our pigs just do not care. They will get one in the next week tho. Anyways I brought a bale of straw out to them and watched them go to town.

So I feel a pretty strong bond with this girl. And I found the name Maeja which I have been testing out and I really like it.

I think it is fitting as she will be a mother.

This lady still needs a name. She is somewhat shy, but she is warming up slowly but surely.

Oh sure, you are all brave and out with the pigs when their area is full of dry hay! ;)
Looks like the new pigs have accepted you into their sounder :)

New boots..who dis? My old boots have been retired after 3 years of service.
We need a picture of the old ones. I want to see if you are fool enough to stick with them as long as I usually do. :D
