    Greetings from Middle TN., USA

    Diesel is a trip. He has to get regular belly cleaning cause he likes to lay where the water drips and gets hay and poo on his tummy. He is so silly. He loves to cuddle but hates being caught. The 4 girls give me serious giggles. Found out Bezer loves our female dog and will wheek at her...

    Conditions Bug problem!

    When looking for quality hay at TSC make sure you look at the bale. Look to see if it is damp. ( Ask for timothy or Tmothy/grass mix) If you can pull the flakes apart and look inside the bale( sometimes it is tight and you can't). Smell the bale. If it has a mold or meldew smell don't buy it...

    What breed? Albino with dark ears?

    My feelings on this is that she saw that this poor pig was going to more then likely either 1. be killed due to lack of sell, 2. be sent back to breeder and bred ( likely to kill her due to hips) or 3. Live out her life stuck in a cage getting attached to other pigs and then have them sold. To...

    Cage Help me PLEASE!!

    In my cage post I did all but the coroplast. My fiancé did it cause last time I used a box cutter I needed stitches. But yes I did like 90% of the massive cage alone while he worked on a website (home business we host and buildsites). Glad your getting it together.

    Fighting Female piggies are fighting!!

    One thing a friend of mine who has show pigs ( not a breeder) said was her long haired females would get barbered by the others if they got out of hand. Poor girls are frustrated hehe.

    What breed? Albino with dark ears?

    So you say it's ok to watch a pig suffer in a petstore. You say you want to end cruelty but I see you also saying leave the pig in a bad place. I wouldn't do that to any animal. The rules to the forum don't state you can't purchase a pig. I understand a lot of the members here put in the time...

    What breed? Albino with dark ears?

    Some how this whole thread went from what breed a poor piggy was to pet store vs. Adoption. Now I am all for adoption and when we go get supplies that I need right away I do peek at the pigs. I know if I saw an adult Piggie in a full glass cage for months on end I would adopt it. But that is me...

    Tuesday we are getting two babies from a friend. They are healthy and basically q-tuned there. She got them 2 months ago and due to work changes can't keep up with their care. Knowing I was looking for two babies (hers are at 5 months) to add to my herd offered them to me. Yay!

    Fighting Female piggies are fighting!!

    my girls bicker if they are both in heat. they take turns being naughty to one another. ( confirmed females) No advice but to interrupt them when they start acting up. Its what we do.

    C&C My girls home before and after.

    I just sat here and stared for 2 days at the space and was thinking of how to make it low enough my daughter ( 4yrs old) could see them well and yet tall enough they weren't on the floor. Then I drew it and spent about 200 on supplies. I have another box of cubes left! hehe hmmmmmmmmm maybe...
