Just to let you all know (whether or not you are interested!!) Ginger
gave birth to three beautiful minipigs last night. They are nothing
short of stunning and I am already dreading finding them new homes!
Although, this is something that may not actually happen depending on
how well I can convince my husband (long-suffering) that 10 gps is a
good idea!! If there is anyone near Herne Bay, Kent (UK) who would like
one then they will be free to very good homes, with the added bonus of
being able to see your new gp as a baby! 
 
Regarding, the posts about neutering boars. I have had 2 of mine done
and they had no problems apart from Badger who did get a little bit
depressed afterwards. I don’t think this was because of the surgery but
more because he missed his bits!! He had a vitamin injection from the
vet and this cheered him up straight away. I  will be getting Fred done
in the next couple of weeks and I am not too worried. So far they
haven’t had to stay over night or anything. My vet charges me £25 and
that includes after care. (my vet is particularly fantastic!) I would,
however, be more careful about spaying a sow as I think that involves
more anaesthetic.  
 
Hope everyone is well. 
 
Love to all piggies!
 
Emma and one heck of a lot of gorgeous pigs!!
