| Največ ogledov - Tamworth & Berkshire Pigs |
Aw, cutešt. ogledov:705The latest batch of Berkshire piglets had trouble feeding; either their mother wasn't bothered or her previous litter were pushing the little ones out of the way. Fortunately, we have two veterinary students working here for the summer so they have been hand rearing the littlies. Sadly, we lost 3 but the other 3 are doing well.

Three Friendsšt. ogledov:698The two black pigs (kurobuta = "black pig" or "black hog" in Japanese) are Berkshire pigs, and the red pig in the middle is a Tamworth pig.

Sleeping Tamworth Pigsšt. ogledov:688It's been very damp, so we brought some of the Tamworth pigs into the stable. We cleaned them off first --- look how they shine. And they don't foul in the stable, just in a corner of the stable yard. This is all one litter: they're brothers and sisters. Born in April 2005, about six months ago. Isn't it great how they sleep in a big gaggle?

Tamworth - Wild Boar Pigletsšt. ogledov:685These six piglets are 7/8 Tamworth and 1/8 Wild Boar. Most of the six look like they're pure Tamworth, but a couple have black snouts and black circles around their eyes. The six were raised alongside a wild sow and a wild boar, so they're quite feisty. They're off to participate in an "Iron Age" lifestyle experiment --- as I understand it, school children will be able to see how folks actually lived in the Iron Age.
