Hi everyone ❤️

We hope you’ve all had a lovely Christmas!!

Just added a few videos today so that everyone can see, despite my personal struggles we are still here and the piggies are still being well cared for!!

We still plan to rehome our trio of boys in the new year, and potentially some of the girls, but as they are used to herd life, they will only go to large open spaces with lots of piggies, thankfully we’ve had some amazing homes contact us!!

Although I still plan to stop this page, purely so we can’t be contacted to help rehome or take in piggies our instagram will still be active so you can keep up with everyone we have ❤️ I am considering having a closed group on here, just because I know there are some of you that love to watch our videos but don’t have instagram so if you’d like that, let us know and I’ll see what I can do in the new year!!

Hope you all have a fantastic run up to New Year and we will be back with updates soon 🩷

Good morning everyone

We wanted to wait until after Christmas to do this, but I really don’t want to start a new year this way so we will tell everyone now.

We’ve faced lots of issues recently, and I just don’t have the mental strength or physical to carry on, so we are stopping. I don’t want to go into any more detail regarding my health.

All the piggies we have will be re-homed ( as many as possible) we have several sets of boys needing homes and some ladies. Any that can’t be re-homed will stay with me, but hopefully the numbers will be a lot less. Anyone we agreed to have stay with us will stay.

We have lots of equipment which we will get on the page and sold before we close it.

I’m sure your all aware how much this will hurt me and mum but we don’t have any choice so please bare that in mind before commenting!

If anyone is looking to adopt we are open to allowing it before Christmas under the right circumstances.

Thank you all for the support these last 8 months, we’ve made some lovely friends, and we’ve helped lots of piggies very happy but it is time now to stop ❤️

Jasper and onyx
Males and under a year old

They are still quite shy but the lady that has rescued them has already seen improvements in their confidence. They must be kept indoor and a set up can be included ❤️

If you’re an exsisting piggy owner that would like to adopt some boys please get in touch, unfortunately I’m full so I can’t take them 😭

More changes in the shed tomorrow, we are making the shelves higher up, with a bigger gap between each so that there’s more light, and we can put a higher front on to keep the boys safe and away from the ladies!!

We have much more planned for the new year, when we’ve raised/saved some pennies!! This will include all rescue piggies being kept away from the herd ❤️

Updates tomorrow 🤎

All our adoptions have been paused during December but…….

These guys, in particular Cow pig are tugging my heart strings, and the longer they stay, the harder it’s going to hurt when they leave, and we already have two sets of boars that are permanent residents so if we can get them a home I’d like to know sooner rather than later, So I’m putting the feelers out now. They will have extra terms if you’d think you’d like to adopt them for example:

❤️ Cage size, they will need more than a 5x2, they currently have a 10ft run, in order to keep harmony a large area is a necessity.

❤️ A plan in place so that if the relationships breaks down when the younger piggies hit puberty they don’t find themselves back here.

❤️ The Multi coloured piggy is painfully shy and will need patience.

So for theses reasons I think an inside home would help bonding quicker, we won’t rehome them for children’s Christmas gifts ( don’t come at me I won’t enter any arguments or discussions about it) proof of set up will be required and no first time piggy owners in this instance ❤️❤️

So I just wanted to share this, so many people feel pressure about buying pets expensive thing especially at Christmas ….. it’s not necessary!

This little brown paper bag came with a present I’d brought my daughter today, I’ve added some readigrass to it, some hay and a handful of forage! You could quite easily just add hay and the daily veggies or herbs, fresh grass and a loo roll holder….. it’s all fine to eat and nice and cheap, but more importantly they’ll love it , and it will keep them occupied ❤️

❤️CAN YOU HELP 🍏🫛🥦🥬🫑🌽🥒🥕🥬❤️

I think Bushbaby thinks she’s an owl! The door was open whilst we cleaned and I’m pretty sure this glare and body position is her saying to close it and put the heating back on!!

We’re full to the brim, and we’re spending lots of pennies on heating and veggies so if anyone wants to help us with some FRESH ( yellow tickets are fine) veggies we really appreciate it!! ❤️ We will always record them enjoying it and can tag you in the video too ❤️

Our doors are now closed we are full!! We do have some that are available for adoption after Christmas 🖤

Cleaning day today!!!! But first something to keep me warm……. Have a guess which is mine 😂
