It’s the school holidays again,
so plenty of people about and loads of pens full of guinea pigs and rabbits.
The first 11 cages had big guinea pigs in, a couple had two. I figured most
would be boars and they were indeed. There were about 30 pens of pigs in total,
some from the usual dealer. None were badly under age or ill looking so things
were good in that department! I ended up getting an older boar with a mullet, a rex type
with 'come get me' eyes, two small boys, one looks to have a touch of fungal on
his crest, a pink eyed rex type sow and a grey agouti/white girl. As usual
there will be a risk of these two being pregnant as their history is unknown.
Good business for the auction today, with only a couple of pens with big
reserves on unsold. I would hope that most of the pigs that ended up as family
pets today would have a good chance as they were strong, bright eyed and
healthy looking. So a good day from a rescue's point of view!
