Well, the time has arrived. What time you might ask? The time where suddenly the trees are blossoming and our lives become even crazier. Over the next 2 weeks we will be bringing home the baby rabbits ( Oh my gosh how cute are baby rabbits??) and pigs ( they are not as cute).
The girls are outside cleaning cages, finding water and feed dishes, checking pig nipples.
What is a pig nipple you are asking? It is a nipple the pigs push with their tongues to drink from.
The handy dandy thing about it is, you can teach the pigs to drink from a water bottle with a pull top on it. So when they are at Fair, stressed and not wanting to drink, they will go to the water bottle or the nipple. Hydrated pigs are a good thing. Stress can bring all sorts of tummy troubles and that is no good.
I will post pictures again as soon as we get the newest additions.
We are all very excited for the craziness to begin..... maybe we are really nuts?
Again, thanks for stopping by.
