Sorting out the Tamworth Boars992 زيارةThe pigs have been gathered in their grassless field. Time to seed it over so the grass will grow by the early autumn. The little boars have been released in this field, full of tall grass and the Black Rock chickens.

Piggie Greeting5590 زيارةThe Tamworth sow has just said good-bye to her first litter. She was a wonderful mother: lost none of her babies. But she seemed a bit relieved to see them go. And the Tamworth boar was happy to see her, although I don't know that he has it quite right.

Iron Age - Gloucester Old Spot10798 زيارةThis round piggie is a cross between an Iron Age pig (itself a cross between a Tamworth and a wild boar) and a Gloucester Old Spot. She looks fat, and she's not young any more, but she can move faster than any of the pigs.
