so these are just a couple quick shots of my two new boys!! yea for us!! these two guys are both lethal white. their rescue mom, carla, has had them since they were three weeks old -they're now 2 years old - which is amazing for lethals!! they're both truly blind, and i'm told deaf as well. they make little chucking and soft wheeking noise that sound "normal", even though i was told they were deaf - maybe they have some hearing?
only one pig has a bottom tooth, but it's just a little tip that's really non-functional. both boys have 2 top teeth that overgrow and need to be clipped every 2-3 weeks.
it's sooo fascinating watching them as they negotiate their space and food together - i'm so happy they have each other. they stay in physical contact with each other almost all the time, and right now they're snuggled together in their pigloo, exhausted by the day's journey home.
i'm sooo very happy and can't wait to spoil these guys (names to be determined), especially since there's no way of knowing how much longer they'll live.
oh, and by the way, especially @bpatters - i was worried about telling them apart, but i did look at their eyes - one has a wide open, blueish eye, the eyes on the other both look like little slits, with no obvious eyeball.
more will be unfolded soon. . . the saga continues. . .
