After the heartbreak of watching too many young sows giving birth, losing babies and then fading themselves we are a touch wary :-(
I watched a few lots sold, and bought two lots from the first run as there were no other bids, but the cages were all boars so those that were wanted I left. The first ones were in a top cage, hidden in straw, so I had no idea what they were. Turns out there is a tiny, tiny ginger chap and a brown/ginger slightly older one. The tiny one should never have been entered, far too small. Also got one of those rare purple and cream Himalayans!(Joke) Who knows why he is that colour, but his skin is good so guess they were marking him.
I bought the first of the next run for a minimum bid, two foxy type boys. I want first dibs on one of them if he doesn't get rehomed please Shaz!! He's just been sat on my lap watching RaRa the noisy lion.
And I finished up getting the final lot, two older boys, funky types, terrified but tame enough and sweet natured. So 7 pigs for £4.40p. :o/

| For a reason we cannot fathom, this boar appears to have been spray painted with purple paint. |

| This little guy should not have been entered into the auction, he is far too small/young. |
