Here is my crew! Gorgeous bunch I've got, even if I do say so myself! First is Lucy Lou, my gorgeous 5 year old sow. She's had some hardships in her life, but has come out of her shell as a great cuddly pet. She loves getting attention as you can see from thise pose 'Aren't you going to shower me with attention now?' Next is Hillary who's 4 years old and has a huge personality! Loves to settle down in your arms, but not for long as she has to check that things are in order back in her kingdom! Next is Phoebe. Phoebe is a stunning lil piggie with a slightly aloof personality. She prefers to be handled with a lot of care in case one of her hairs becomes out of place! Loves cuddles, but has a weak bladder lol Next is darling Yoshe. This pig amazes me every day. Her personality is big for a small pig and she rules the cages when Hillary has her back turned. She gets the 'human thing' more than the others and knows how to get what she wants. Here is Bazz, short for Barry. Bazzy is the most relaxed piggie you could ever meet. Aparts from his avid love of girls, this mellow fellow enjoys snuggles and has no objections to photos!! Next is Gimpie. Gimps has a slight abnormality in his neck which sends him on wild frenzies around the cage with his head flipping back and forward. He engages everybody with his gorgeous eyes and cute little lips. He's an absolute delight and a great pig to cuddle! I think I'd better stop now. I'll introduce the girls' pigs another time.

Aww they are all beautiful Al!!! I love all the new pictures of them ;D I just love close up photo's, you can see every detail My brother has loaned me his new camera so hopefully I'll have some new ones soon. I know we don't like having a favourite, but Kathy adores Lucy Yoshe looks so much like Sweetpea in the face Best cut back on the smilies before steam comes out of Treen's ears lol

Best cut back on the smilies before steam comes out of Treen's ears lol I'm looking in to surgery which means you can't see them any more lol. They're all gorgeous aL! Lovely pictures too, and I'm guessing there'll be a lot more soon! Aww Yoshe's ears are still standing right up! She's grown loads, but she's still just a baby isn't she! So remind me again who lives with who now. Are all the girls together, Bazz and Gimpie together and then your sisters' pigs together separately?

Yes, my babies are adorable! lol Oh Treen, I told you in my email that none of these were with the new cam, but Lucy's was! People say that Yoshe's ears are big lol but I love them! They are so cute! She weighs almost 600g now and is 3 and a half months old. She's just darling... Umm, yes the girls all live together, but Dad is making a new cage soon (hopefully) and we might then get another girl (an older one - more Hilly and Lucy's age) to fill the new cage with Lucy. Bazz and Gimpie are together and Pickle and Hookesy live with Molly (but she's generally out in the run for most of the day - if it's a nice day)

People say that Yoshe's ears are big lol but I love them! They are so cute! I quite agree! Mine all love having their ears rubbed too, so I'd make full use of them if she were mine *hint hint* lol.

rotfl! Mine don't like that as much actually...they love it right on top of their heads (especially the crested crew and Yoshe) the others love it on the cheeks and under the chin.

Here are a couple of newbies. One of Yoshe from a few weeks ago to show off her satinisation - turned out really well! Lucy...Yummmm lol Is that nice, Hillary? Where are we, Hilly? Good girl, A+!! All the girlies... Phoebe and Lucy have had their fair share of photo shoots, so their up for the next round (code for, none of their pictures turned out to my liking lol) Enjoy!

the others love it on the cheeks and under the chin. Try touching Fred or Charlie under the chin and you'll get an annoyed chunter and then a quick nip if you persist lol. Bob just holds her head up with a pained expression like 'pleeeeease stop that!'. The new pics are great - I especially like the one of Hilly reaching for the strand of grass, aww!

Lol Arn't piggies so different!! Sweetpea hates me stroking her on her head but loves her neck being stroked. Clover hates being stroked anywhere passed her waist. All my piggies love their ears being gently rubbed, they go into a little trance with their eyes half shut lol

All my piggies love their ears being gently rubbed, they go into a little trance with their eyes half shut lol That's what mine do - awww, isn't it cute! And if Biblet gets a bit stressed (when she has to travel somewhere for instance) it calms her down really quickly if you just rub her ears for half a minute. If someone else is looking after them, I always tell them that little trick! Good luck with the boys' pictures aL! I always end up using food to keep mine still lol. Unless they're half asleep or eating, they're not really very cooperative about having pictures taken lol - if they're not running off, they're sniffing the camera so close, all I get is a blurry snout!

I'll have to dig up a few week old shots of the boys...they're my absolute faves. I did feature shoots of each of my boys the other week with the old cam...some good shots in there.
I might have to try out the ear thing lol...I know Gimpie won't stand for it as he hates his ears being touched! Aren't they funny though (as I'm on the subject) they're like pixie ears lol

Hi Al, I was just looking at your old photos of your GORGEOUS piggies! Has Gimpie always had the neck problem? Because my Milano has had two strokes and her neck and head are like that now too because of the stroke. Sometimes I call her "Tippy". Go and look at the photos I sent and you'll see how she leans and bends-typical stroke stuff. Your babies are all so beautiful, especially Yoshe ( we had a hamster named Yoshe!).
