Re: Hi Everybody
Hi! Welcome to the forum and such!

The easiest way is to bribe them with veggies. Plop a pile of veggies in front of them and snap away. I have also had luck setting them down on a really comfortable pillow.

Yep, I'm a super fast ninja! Actually I just happened to be checking the forums when you posted. On most days you'll have to wait a while for a response.

I forgot to add, if your new to piggies (even if your not) this thread is the perfect place to start on learning about proper care: http://www.cavycages.com/forum/showthread.php?t=17032

Can't wait to see pictures!

Re: Hi Everybody
Welcome aboard PC Pigs!

I'm kinda well known around here for my good photography skills with piggies, but even I struggle when it's more than two pigs in a photo.
The key is definitely bribing with veggies. If you don't want veggies in the shot, have someone hold the veggies while your pigs eat them, then they pull them away quickly - preferably above the pigs - and you snap the photo. It's not foolproof but I have had success that way. Just make sure the pigs have a good mouthful of veggies otherwise they will instantly go after the food and mess up the shot!!
