Feeding a big group of pigs is like merging onto a motorway full of fast moving trucks whose drivers got their licenses from the dodge-ems at a fair. And all the drivers are half crazed with thirst and my truck is carrying the beer!
Happy pigs.
My friend Kristy (eatplayloveblog) had Camera House yesterday and was able to catch a little of this frenzy on camera for you.
I am carrying 5 gallon buckets of warm porridge. Their favourite! But I am awkward and they profess to be starving. So I am careful.
They quickly settle down to scoffing and coughing. PIGS, the lot of them.

I hope you have a lovely day.

ROFL – What happy pigs!
Love picture of the porridge shower 🙂 Celi you must be breeding and growing the best meat in IL. Laura
Tane is the best!!
Perfectly happy Piggies! They have a wonderful life.
I guess this defines the saying one eats like a pig!
They are fed an excellent diet. Will be great tasting meat.
Such fun to see the mob scene as you have described it! Looks like it could be dangerous though, so do be careful!!! xoxoxo
OMG!! I love these images! What mayhem with the pigs and then to finish off with Tane – Mr. Manners! No mess with him, just down the hatch! Aw, this post made me happy. 😀
These days we only raise a few pigs at a time – even at that – I toss a couple of blocks of frozen homemade cream cheese some distance away (or eggs if I’ve any to spare) and then I’m able to feed in relative safety 😊
That sounds like good thinking- I sometimes use boiled eggs too but when they see that bucket it is all over!
what a lovely life..being a pig at the farmy..with porridge all over your face ..HE! he!

You have the happiest pigs in the USA.
Pigs love good food and a warm bed – then they are pretty set! c
