Eloise


Check out that face! This is little Eloise. She was born mid July 2014 and is a long-coated pet. Most likely to grow a peruvian-looking coat, but she is not 'pedigree' for any particular breed. Just another very pretty little lady to add to our piggy family.

Fluffy Baby Boris


Check out the coat growth on this spunky little dude! 

Boris was about 1 month old in the photo above. 
He is now about 2.5months old (photos below). 

He is the sweetest, cuddliest little guy. He LOVES to sit on top of his hidey house, rather then in it. He doesn't like to be caught, but once in your arms is quite content to have his chin rubbed and his hair brushed. Most of his coat is growing back (from behind his head towards his rump like a Sheltie), but then he has the rosettes by his chin that give him parakeet chops like a Sheba Mini Yak, and two bum-rosettes that flick his rear gold-patch up in the air a bit like a Peruvian!

I do love pet/mixed breed pigs. They don't have to look like anything. And there is certainly a freedom in that after owning/breeding/assessing pedigrees for many years.
