This is Beryl who is a Welsh pig. She is the Mum to the two weaners that we went to fetch yesterday.
She is a feisty old girl and the two offspring that she has produced in her last litter are very confident and are already showing similar traits to their Mum. Normally if a sow only produces two in her litter she is off to be made into sausages but her owner Tom has decided to give her one last try,
They are crossed with a Hampshire, the boar looks like dad and the gilt is similar to Mum. This is a picture of dad Gerald.
Once we had got the weaners into the trailer they quickly snuggled down into the straw and went to sleep.
