Agatha Moves In


Today the kids finished Agatha's new house and she moved in. 





She went right to work rearranging it the way she wanted.





They made her a nice water hole in the sand





It was an Agatha day at the spa.  Time to get all cleaned up and ready to have piglets.











A very content, very pregnant Agatha, just a few days from having piglets.








Did you know:

 An average pig gestation period is 3 months, 3 weeks, 3 days  

A sow is an adult female pig.  A gilt is a young female

A boar is a male pig and a barrow is a castrated male

A sow typically has 8-12 piglets at a time and can be bred twice a year

  1. WOW, she has gotten really big. It looks like she really enjoyed her watering hole. It also looked like Jacob was having a great time with her, while Steph looked on. I can't wait to see all the little piglets.
