Oops. Bean got scared.
Bean and I got up early this morning. I saw my daughter on the couch as she was about to leave for work, but Bean didn't see her. So when she stood up, it surprised him. Once he knew it was her, he was fine!

How to keep piggies enriched
Hi! I’m bringing home my Juliana girl in about a week and a half and I’m anxious about being able to keep her entertained and enriched, especially when we aren’t home. She will be in a large playpen and then as she gets older a large kennel when we aren’t at home (which isn’t often I only work 2 days a week) but I want to make sure she is entertained and doesn’t get bored and destroy things. Eventually I want to build her a nice outdoor set up with a house and an area to root and sunbathe but we aren’t there yet.
So far I have:
Snuffle mats
Lick mats
Stuffies
Lots of blankets to root in
And I’m working on getting together some rooting boxes to place around the house with garden stones
All other ideas/advice/life with a pig tips are appreciated and welcome! Thankful for this community as a new pig mom!

What does Bean eat, I've been asked in the past.
This. This lasts about 3 days. And I put pellets in it as well for breakfast and dinner. He gets about 2 had fulls at each meal!

Outdoor shelter ideas for older piggy
Hi all!
My girl is going on 18 years this fall. She has decided she likes sleeping in the backyard (on her dog bed) rather than her room in the garage. We built a temporary canopy to protect her from the sun but we will need something better once the rainstorms start.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Pua and Koa
No matter how much they bark at each other all day, they always come together.

Stopping by to say Hello!
This is a pot belly I picked up from the woods a few years ago.
Someone posted her on facebook saying they were off roading in the state park and they saw her. They went up and could pet her and she had a blanket near by. Obviously dropped off somehow but they could not catch her.
I went out the next morning and she was just laying next to the road so I grabbed her and put her in the back of my pickup truck and locked the truck cap.
Over 5 years later and she is happy at her new home.
