    Hi. My name is Chris. New to site.

    I can relate to this...before I adopted my piggies I was at a PetSmart that had a female piggie that had given birth to 3 babies. They said they only sell boys. They were adopting all the pigs out b/c they weren't allowed to sell them. They were cute white babies, which I was told were albino...

    My new to me piggies!

    Ok good, now I don't feel so bad. :) The funny thing is the names do fit their personalities. Penny wheeks a lot, Bernadette is the smaller one of all three and a little more laid back, and Amy is kinda pushy when it comes to the other piggies.

    Yes, I found the post on Sunday and met with the original owner on Tuesday. I had been looking for a while and wasn't having any luck finding piggies close to me. My biggest question is how long should I wait to try handling them? They have been handled but are skittish and not easy to...

    Photos Veggie Time!!

    Hi! I'm new to this forum and owning piggies. I just adopted 3 pigs today...I have done a lot of reading but was wondering when I feed them veggies tonight should they each get their own bowl or is it ok to put everything on a small plate to let them have at it? I will introduce myself in the...
