Growing Up!

These little guys and girls are 18 days old and are starting to be interested in the food their momma is eating!  Today I sectioned off a square of electric fence that is just high enough for the little guys to get under but to keep the big pigs out so that they can start eating their own food. Combined with an all you can eat buffet of grass, roots, vines, and insects the piglets will be receiving a high protein food that will help them to grow up quick. 
As of now, all 6 are sold. 4 are going to new homes when they are weaned and 2 are going to be fed out to 300lbs here on the farm.
