Talking Latest Pigtures of the Famous Four

I haven't got any new ones of Lottie as she just wouldn't stay still for any photos, and the few I did get were just of her back legs after she walked away from a cute pose. So it's just pigtures of Charlie, Tuppy and Jazzie for you this time!

Re: Latest Pigtures of the Famous Four

I always look forward to more of your pictures CCC!! Remind me what breed Charlie is. I've found a HUGE boy that looks just like him that needs rescuing. My husband doesn't want to get an older pig though because he's afraid we won't have him long and the kids will be crushed when he passes. He is unbelieveably big!!! I've never seen a pig this big!

Re: Latest Pigtures of the Famous Four

Charlie is an Aby I think. I want to pignap him! How much does he weigh CCC? I LOVE abys, but never had a pure one before. I would love a huge big boar, they are too adorable.

Re: Latest Pigtures of the Famous Four

Here's another of my Charlie boy. I forgot to upload it with the rest. He's a 2 and a 1/2 year old Agouti Aby. He weighs just under 3lb. My chubby pigster!



Thanks for the comments! I love having people admiring my precious little piggles.

Been meaning to ask... was he neutered when you got him? I really fancy owning a boar again and would love to get the girls a "boyfriend". Not had the best experience with spays as you might guess but would love to hear your views on neutering.

Re: Latest Pigtures of the Famous Four

Charlie was actually from a pet store - I got him in July 2003 before I'd ever even heard of piggy rescues.

He was neutered in September 2003, but only because he was living with another boar who fought with him. I read that if you neutered both boars they would get along, but obviously it didn't work so I rehomed the other boar. Now I know that neutering doesn't affect behaviour, so it was bound to not work. Luckily I could give him some girlfriends because he was neutered, which is how Tuppy, Lottie and Jasmine came to join the gang.

The actual neutering went brilliantly - he went in at 8am and was home by 4pm. He was absolutely fine, if a little dozy for an hour after he came home, but the wound healed beautifully and there were no problems at all.

He's more like one of the girls now. I think he's adopted a few 'girly' tendencies, like snuggling teddies, licking anything and everything and so on.
