It’s been very cold recently and the fluffy flakes are littering our muddy field. The piglets are having great fun chasing each other round in it, and trying to catch the snow in their mouths as it falls. We however have been much more concerned in finding our food! It’s practically impossible with the white blanket covering the ground; the food just sinks in and disappears! Even worse, when we do eventually find some food, the piglets decide they’re hungry and come and eat it! (Yes, they’ve started stealing our food already!!!)
Luckily though, when we’ve finished eating we have a nice warm ark full of lovely straw to snuggle into to warm ourselves up after the cold. Emma says that it shouldn’t be snowing for too much longer, which is good in a way I suppose, but then again when it stops we’ll have nothing to distract the mischievous piglets with! Emma told us that we have to look after them in this cold weather, but I think we’re really the ones that need looking after – if we’re not careful they’ll eat all our food and we’ll starve!Acorn & Berry

perhaps emma should double your rations again!
I found your blog via the article in Delicious. The piglets are gorgeous! We're hoping to get pigs once we have room.
Great to hear you are going to get some pigs Jules. Have you decided which sort? Obviously the Berkshires are the best, but if you want to take a look at all the British Rare Breeds please see our website www.emmaspigs.co.uk
