UPDATE Avrils babies are now 3 days old they are eating hay and veg not seen them eat dry food yet. Avril is being such a good mum especially with 4 to look after. Missys babies are doing great they are a bit bigger than Avrils though. I was a bit worried at first cos Missy was being rough with them now she is licking them and letting them suckle. Missy had 2 rough coated babies and 1 smooth coat baby. I cannot stop watching them Avril and babies are going back out in my shed later on today as she is doing great with them. Missy im gonna keep an eye on but i think she will be fine. Fergie my sow who had the miscarriage was in with Missy and bubs and she loved the babies even though they werent hers. But unfortunately Missy didnt like her looking after her babies. So Fergie is now in with my other 3 sows. Will take more piccies and post them when i can. |
