Four Weeks Old

When Piglets reach 4 weeks old they get their license to be as naughty as they want!

They spend all day discovering new treasures to stick their noses in, searching all corners of the yard for something fun or delicious.

They travel together in a pack, resembling a gang of hoodlums out on a Saturday night looking for trouble, and when the police come they all run scattering before they can get caught.

At four weeks old they discovered my porch! I was out there 10 times a day screeching like a fish wife and waving the broom sending them scurrying back to mum.

At four weeks old they also discovered the back garden where I grow all my vegetables - a disaster waiting to happen!!

That day comes and then they have to be locked away.

Their antics are so cute to watch and they are a constant source of entertainment that I don't want to lock them away. They are so happy and free.

This morning I gave them a ball to play with. It was joy to watch them having so much fun with it.
They are six weeks old now and ready to go to their new homes.
I shall miss them when they all go, they really do brighten up my day!
