Looks like the little ones will be having a welcome party! Here is a picture of Priss(dam) and Randy(sire/tan).
Also, not only do these hogs look super curly but the babies are born with stripes just like wild boar.

It was gorgeous out today, about 82 degrees so I brought out the camera because I have been dying to do some photography. Priss is miserable, when she lays down she lets out this long groan, poor girl still has 28 days to go, but we are getting so close. We are thinking she is going to have a pretty big litter, but its only a guess at this point.
You can see her gentle face, and her curls of course
Look at that belly

She's probably thinking to herself "What have they DONE to me?!"

Been many years since or pig producing days . DW misses it . Although I remember it well . How cute they were. I never could decide what was funnier the pigs or the way DW interacted with them . More than once she would come running in the house with one that looked dead to me . And then it would be squealing in the kitchen sink . Then wrapped in a warm towel and snuggled in her lap . Taking milk from a eye dropper . Looking forward to litter pictures . Good luck hope she is a good mother for you .

@Hipshot Im glad you enjoy them! This is our first farrowing on the farm so we are all quite excited and anticipation is high. We have done lambing in the past, so I have some midwifing experience. Im almost positive our girl will be a good mama, she is very calm, and love getting rubs under her jowls and behind her ears. Yesterday when I took the photos While she was laying down, she rolled on her side and let me pet her belly.

I love the picture of you and Priss. Both of you look utterly content. Tell her it won't be long now!
