Charleen,
We had a whole bunch of pigs dumped out here by their owner. One of my neighbors took some in. One of my neighbors renters was feeding the sow. When she moved, she called Animal Control and they chased them onto our farm. Animal Control refused to come onto our farm and chase them. All they had to do was ask, but instead they chewed up drip lines all summer around the Monterrey pines. Lousy pigs!
I do admire the Momma pig. She protected her babies from the hungry coyotes!
Last October she'd had enough, and she and her piglets (she had seven, one died at birth, one was given away, one disappeared, and the rest showed up at the Pumpkin Patch and walked into the petting zoo enclosure. One of my guys, thought quick and closed the gate on them. They were real good at eating rotten pumpkins so we let them stay, and eventually found homes for them. See photo.
Life is never boring on the farm.
We don't plant datura either or worse yet blue curl. That is really stinky stuff.
Not much blooming this time of year. Except in the gh.
You should have your FB soon, let me know when they get there, okay?
WIB!
