So I went to get my runt yesterday and he had 2 of them! One of them is half the size of the other, he was born really small. Neither of them could compete with the rest of the litter, so he gave them to me. They were born on April 8th (Easter).

First thing I did was give them a bath! They stunk.
Here's the bigger one:

Here's the smaller one:

Then they rested for a while.

And then I needed to get some work done outside but didn't feel like leaving them behind, so I made a sling for them. :D

They're drinking out of a bowl really well. I tried a bottle, but neither wanted it. They weren't sure about the bowl at first, but they're pros now. ;)

Oh my goodness! I see some spoiled piggies in your future! Nice job taking them in. They'll probably turn out to be your best pigs ever. They sure are cute with those little spots! :D

He said these two were the only ones with spots. The rest were red. I kind wanted a red one, but these are sure cute too.

Your piglets are really adorable! I hope they do well-----I'm sure they will with the care you're already giving them.

Well the little buggers had to move out to the barn last night. They were pretty stinky, even after a second bath and totally new towels (for bedding). They're doing really well though! The teensy boy is eating SO well, and boy is he scrappy! His bigger brother is eating well too, but has a touch of scours. He's pretty friendly though, and seems to be happiest in the sling. :lol:

I'll get some this evening! It's amazing how much they've filled out already. They're out in the barn running around now...I've got a camera on them and I'm watching them from the house. :p
