No effort is spared in finding salubrious settings for our curly coats! So it should be no surprise really that 4 of Ginger's last litter have literally landed in clover... and grass as tall as they themselves. A fitting reward they probably think for behaving so impeccably at the Show!
Their new home, The Butterfly & Wildlife Park 
(http://www.butterflyandwildlifepark.co.uk/), is at Long Sutton in the South East of the county. It's a wonderful setting and just chocabloc with Interesting Things to Do - for Piglets and People.
(http://www.butterflyandwildlifepark.co.uk/), is at Long Sutton in the South East of the county. It's a wonderful setting and just chocabloc with Interesting Things to Do - for Piglets and People.Their arrival was much heralded: their new boss, the charming Mr Crosse, was interviewed by Radio Lincoln before the piglets arrived - and again, for good measure, afterwards! The staff were all agog and the crowds enjoying an extremely un-English hot Summer's day got an unexpected bonus.
Even the Llamas and the African Sheep stirred from their slumbers-in-the-sun to watch the new arrivals.
And what a spectacle they provided! If there's a camera or a bunch of people in sight they instinctively know what to do. Gallumping to and fro, rushing up to Rose and Neil (their new 'slaves'), dashing off to investigate the new sleeping 
quarters - and finding, Oh Delight, that's where the food arrives - charging from one end of the pen to the other in order to find out which were the 'most entertaining' people to watch..... All such fun! In return for providing such amusement they have been allocated a truly wonderful and just-made-for-piglets paddock (the Pygmy goats didn't really mind moving elsewhere...) complete with large and small trees, banks to roll down and - when it rains - a natural pond to paddle in! What more could they ask?

they find themselves now sharing - almost - a home with, they should learn (or are taught by Rose!!!) to fly. Well - that's not much to ask is it??? By Christmas....... no pressure....
