Everyday is special at the moment Linda! Thankyou for asking!
They are coming more and more out of their shells and are a great addition to the family! Betty is still the more skittish...she waits for me to give Wilma some nibbles through the bars of the cage and then snatches it out of her sisters mouth! they are still a bit scared when they come out for cuddles and just sit there with *if i dont move maybe she'll go away* expressions but betty did half close her eyes with an ear rub so we are making progress!
I will take some more pics tomorrow!

ooo it gets better! Just came back from the vets with Hanny...we decided to take the babies for a quick check and to show the vet who we got them from and it turns out their third sister was still there alone waiting for a new home! the vets Dad has a petshop below the clinic and is a bit old fashioned. he had sold the mummy pig and the baby was all alone for sale too. The vet told me about her with a smile and we both turned to look at my boyfriend....How could he resist! The vet was so pleased that she would go to a good home and be with her sisters...he was planning on keeping her but after Mum had gone she would have been alone and he said he prefers she is with her siblings! he told his dad we had 'paid' and we scooped her off home with the others!! She's gorgeous! She is white but almost has a himilayan face as her ears and nose are a bit grey! with a funky crest like her sisters!! i have attached a couple of dodgy pictures. Will give her 24 hours to settle in and then get some better ones!! Back to the name drawing board!

Why not name her pebbles if you want to stick with the flinstones theme? but they are all very adorable!

Yeah he is a softie!!
Believe it or not Mary...Pebbles is the first thing that sprung to mind and is the hot favourite...we are just researching that charecters name in the spanish version as sometimes they are cuter! B/F not sure about Pebbles but I think it suits her perfect...watch this space for confirmation!! Thanks for your ideas too anna! we pretty much exhausted the snow theme when we got 10 white mice!!
have wasted the whole day watching the three babies popcorning together in a fantastic family reunion! Hoorah!

Hi guys!
The three little sisters are settling in great! They are enjoying the days playing outside in their run with boxes, bags of hay and piles of nibbles!! They are the cutest little bundles and look like a rodeo of bucking broncos when they start their popcorning routines!!
I have been ill over the weekend so no new photos at the moment but I'll try and get some group shots today or tomorrow!!
Yes we finally agreed on Pebbles for the little white one so we have the whole Flinstone family now!!
I just got some bags of seeds from planet guinea yesterday so I'll be planting them and Hantaro up a lovely feast!! ;D
