Tilly!

This weekend Martin and I picked up Tilly, our in pig gilt. (a pregnant female). We are very excited!


On her first night Tilly managed to cross the electric fence and evict the sandy and black weaners living next door. Apparently she preferred their pig ark. No worries though, the weaners took note and moved on and seem perfectly happy in their new home.


I think Tilly is a little depressed as she hasn't really come out to play. Hopefully she will perk up soon. She had a roommate at her last home, Katherine, and although Katherine was rather bossy, I think Tilly misses the company. And we changed her name, so that must be confusing as well. She was called Tana. I really don't like that name. So now she is called Tilly!

Funny! That picture of the piglets with Tilly in what I assume is their arc is a riot. Funny how her ears flop over her eyes - ? K8

How often do you have to change the hay in the pig ark?
