Ok - this is not chicken related. But thought you may want to see some photos!!
We got our pig two weeks ago! He is a black berkshire and is sooooooooo cute. We have gone halves with some neighbours as apparently you cant just have one pig as they get lonely (plus they have enough spare land!)
Ours is the smaller one called smokey and theirs is called george (after a little boy that our neighbour's son does not like at nursery!)
We got them at around 12 weeks when they were weaned onto pig nuts and wormed then we raise them for a further 12 weeks before the farmer takes them off again and we get 60Kg of prepackaged pork back!! (We need a new freezer!)

Travelling in style in the back of the car on arrival day:
Pig handling lesson one (yes it did poop down his trousers and fill up his pocket!):
Munching the grass in their new enclosure:
Our little smokey:
When the neighbour's four year old was asked at nursery why the pig was called smokey his answer, after some thought, was 'I dont know - ive never seen him with any cigarettes'
