First off is Oliver, I believe he is a Peruvian mix at about 5 months old. He is shy, but such a sweetheart. He is the dominant piggy out of the pair.

Next is Pip, he is an Abyssinian around 4 1/2 months old. He loves his chin scratched, and he loves his roommate Oliver.

Then on to the girls, this is Persephone. She is an Abyssinian about 3 months old, she is very outgoing and likes to "mistake" fingers for carrots. IMG_1724.jpg
Lastly is her sister Nyx, I will have to reply to this post with her picture, there is no more room for anymore files:(.
Anyway, I would love to see your piggies also!

This is Nala. She is an American Shorthair. She is the most personable of the girls but she doesn't like getting picked up. Once she is in you hands, she snuggles like no body's business.

This is Pumpkin. Pumpkin is an Abyssinian and she is the most shy of the girls. She doesn't like getting picked up or held by some people. When I hold her, she gives me kisses all of the time!

Here is a shot of both girls. :)

Welcome to the forum! Your piggies are adorable. I had to comment because I never thought I'd meet someone else who named their piggie Persephone. I used p names and my family thought I was crazy to use that name. Anyway, way cool that our piggies have the same (very unusual) name!

@YourSoJelly your pigs appear to be on ceder shavings. I highly advise against housing them on ceder shavings and getting them on aspen or pine shavings.

The boars aren't neutered, the attached photo was of Oliver and Pip.

@MrWhistles is correct. @YourSoJelly, cedar shavings put off aeromatic oils that can cause respiratory problems which can be fatal for pigs.
