They’re getting the hang of it.

I poked a stick through the wire and depressed the hog nipple. They got excited and plowed up the mud. I poked it a few more times and they finally bit the nipple. In moments they both bit down on the nipple and sucked up a drink. We decided to use a blue barrel instead of the tote.

We are tired, but very satisfied with our hard work. Piper and Poodle like it too!

I major project crossed off the list. It's amazing how much you've done on your property in the few years you've had it.

I guess the chicken tractor is next? Are you going to build a bigger coop also?

I have a funny story. Our son came in for the Easter holiday, his job shut down for a week. It's been nice to have him here, relaxed and not having to hurry back to work or on his way to a job.

We kept the two little grand daughters, age 18 months and 3 years old for the weekend. My son took the 3 year old for a walk, she wanted to go see the pigs.

DS "You want to go see Bacon and Pork Chop?"
#2 "Their names are Piper and Poodle."
DS "No, they are named Bacon and Pork Chop."
#2 "That's not their name, they are Piper and Poodle."
DS "No, they're Bacon and Pork Chop."
#2 "Piper and Poodle."
DS "Bacon and Pork Chop."
#2 "That's what they'll be when they DIE. Right NOW they are Piper and Poodle."

Your hog pen looks great. How much feed does the metal feeder hold? I need to get our hog pen built this year if work schedule permits any spare time. You guys are sure knocking out the projects this year and it only April. Keep at it
