Chase's PigПереглядів: 7441This magnificent pig is a cross between a kune kune pig (the small pigs from New Zeland, who have wattles) and a Gloucester Old Spot pig. We never understood how that mating took place. This pig is about 12 or 13 years old, but she can still move as fast as a piglet.

An Iron Age PigПереглядів: 17697This 11 or 12 year old pig is a cross between an Iron Age pig (which itself is a cross between a Tamworth pig and a wild boar) and a Gloucester Old Spot pig. While she looks fat, she is incredibly fast.

Berkshire PigПереглядів: 991Having a bit of a slow amble across the field.

CuddlesПереглядів: 739The two piglets --- the entire litter --- cuddle for warmth under Mom's front leg.

|
MotherhoodПереглядів: 893This Tamworth sow had her first litter. Unfortunately, she's only had two piglets, but they're pretty cute. She chose to have them outdoors, on a bed of straw, rather than in the near-by pig ark. Here the piglet has a good look at Mom.

The Two Piglet Litter and MomПереглядів: 1332This Tamworth sow had a litter of two cute piglets. Despite the fact that she was near a pig ark, she decided to have her litter in a pile of straw near the fence.

A Berkshire PigПереглядів: 754On his way over to see if I'm doing anything interesting, or, better yet, to see if I've brought any food.

Curly TailПереглядів: 4870When I saw this photograph, it reminded me of those ribbon pins that seem to be all the rage at awards ceremonies. This curly tail belongs to one of our Berkshire pigs.
