A litter of 12 British Saddleback piglets born a few days ago. They are still at the stage of staying tucked in next to mum or in a single heap in a corner of the farrowing house under a heat lamp. I don't normally use a heat lamp at this time of the year but it has been a bit on the cool side with temperatures dropping overnight. They are all doing well as is their mother. We also have another sow who is due to deliver any day now.
It has been cooler,I'm glad you can keepthe little piggies warm.
ReplyDeleteThanks. They are doing well. (Happy for you to isit if you would like to see them).
