On Tuesday, January 18th, we had to go to hospital down in southern Pennsylvania for our son's ear surgery - all is fine. With the contrariness of farm animals, Marmalade decided to farrow that day!
Without further ado, here are pictures of Marmalades TEN piglets!
(Please excuse the blurriness - they kept moving. You'll be getting a lot more photos!)
Don't you just love the mix of colors? I haven't sexed them yet.
It's interesting that Flower never had such big litters. We're going to breed her one more time - to William. I'm interested to see if the lack of fertility was due to her or Tigger. Marmalade is Tigger and Flower's daughter and her fertility is very good, so I have to wonder.
