I had such a great time at the MVRBA Double Cavy show in Maquoketa, IA yesterday. Got to see so many friends and have a nice time. New and newer judges this round. Thanks to Linda Loucks and Dana Kolstad for answering the call of the club for judges. Thanks to all the writers and those who did so much for the show.

I was especially happy to win Best of Breed American in a very large entry of American. She also managed to be up against the Best of Breed winner on the other table as well, but the Black American got that one (Kati Scheuermann it was an epic battle and congrats on the wins). I'm honored to have an animal from Gary Ash lines. She will be fun to keep showing.

Ash's Dont Touch Me Much Aka: Caress our Silver Martin Tan Pattern American won Best of Breed on Dana Kolstads table. Oddly, I thought I had grabbed her daughter for the show and turned out it was her, the downfall of pigs that look very similar. We hope her daughter does just as well.

I'm pleased with comments on my project Aby. Good comments on my Teddy. My TSW Teddy sow took Best Junior Teddy both shows. My Broken Coronet sow also took Best Junior Coronet both shows.

I didn't win BIS personally, but my good friend, Rachel Boucher's Cream Satin American won Best in Show on Dana Kolstads Table I was happy to be able to help handle the beauty for Rachel as she couldn't make it.

PF Bazi (black point white) and her son, PF Dashing (black point cream) are some darn cute Cal Pattern Aby I'm working on.
After a very unfortunate accident today, and a hurt piggie in the caviary. I needed to play with some pigs. I'm enjoying how nice the markings are coming along. The cream can be much lighter , but getting all these different things to come together is fun.

Priceless Farms Patchwork Kid AKA: Felicity.

Is a TSW Aby Sow. Nice over all, no big glaring faults. She had more Red on other side. Try her out for spring shows and get her seen. She has more Red on other side.

This little lady, PF Dalgona is on her way to try her luck being a Therapy Pig for many children and adults. Patti Anderson from North Star Pet Therapy will be working with her to see if a Teddy can certify.
Teddy go through so many different stages in the coats. Despite Dalgona losing a large portion of skin to a over grooming mom, we were able to get her hair to make a remarkable recovery. Unfortunately, the damage was so severe on her rump the hair is thin there and may never be full. She's a sweet heart, and I cross my fingers her personality will fit for this job.

Priceless Farms Ever After aka: Everly is a Golden Agouti/Red/White Broken Sow. Going to fatten her up and see what the spring shows say about her and her coat. Hopefully those little ears grow. We shall see. She's pretty decent, and I have a lot of Teddy sows I've decided to keep. So if anyone wants a show prospect, I may part with her.

Taking Donnas's cage partner out for a little spin, PF Desdemona is not too far behind Donna in size, but she's just regular American. She's growing in her head and nose more. I'd like better ear carriage but she's shaping up to be a nice sow.

Sharing this insanely charismatic boy and his weird pig behavior. FFAC Havoc came home from Indiana with some snot bubbles so we were treating him for a cold, he's fully recovered and awaiting re-introduction to the teen boy herd. He does this all day long. If he hears me come into the caviary this is how he reacts until I feed him something. He has food and water. He has destroyed almost all my bottle holders now, so it's down to new bale twine every day. He doesn't really squeak he just does this crazy routine until he gets a snack. He's adorable.

Getting a serenade while finishing the show

"Hell hath no fury like..."well I guess if you have A Fury, that's different

Here is the updated video today of that same baby pig with the light form of entropian. You can see he is fully healed and not longer needs skin training. He can see fully out of both eyes now.

This post is about babies with Entropian. Entropian can come in varying degrees of severity. Sometimes it's birth trauma, injury, or congential. It can be severe, or light with or with out hair on eyelids. Many times it's noticeable at birth when the babies dry out their eyes will have white film over them. This baby was lucky. He had only minor folds in both eyelids, a little bit of hair. I had to "train" the eyelid several times a day and put Veteracyn opthamalic gel in as well. It took about 2 weeks to clear them up. So don't give up hope if your babies are born with this. Some Entropian can not be fixed with out surgical prevention. So this is a light case.

Tootie ended up passing away last night despite efforts to pull through. I am happy to say PF Dixie has taken them in.

Figure I'll post cute things today.

Lil Viv is a talker. She is spicy and sweet. She's been doing well with her little 5 drops of milk every few hours. Leonis ended up with ANOTHER DOA pup in her cage this afternoon. It was about Viv's size. Just so weird. She still seems perfectly fine health and mood wise.

Pig cam alerted me that some babies are being born. Poochie has started birthing what seems to be a very large litter. Two out and probably 2 to 3 more to go. JH Alypius has got two kids already sporting his signature half and half face.

The glamorous life of a guinea pig farmer. We are supplementing Ms Bee twice a day with crushed tums/chewable C/juice/and baby food bananas. She starting seizing about a week into feeding her large litter and having neuro pain in her hind legs. This yummy gruel just really boosts C and Calcium plus other very needed vitamins. We load her up with a cup of fruit and veggies mix a day too. She is doing very well and absolutely enjoys being spoon fed. Me not so much.

It's been a long time since I've been able to blend this many young grow-out sows together without them biting each other's eyes out (sarcasm). Our really big community pen is full of retiree's so they got the next size big cage. The males young-ins tend not to fight as much so this is a treat. Opened up a lot of other cages for breeding.

Came home to Tomayo working on #4. Possibly one more in there yet. Will post when clean and bonded.
