We have had a lovely trio of piggies in..pics will be added later
There is a neutered male called Poncho who is a sheltie, just under 2 years old.
He has two wives both 3 years old, Carrie who is a gorgeous Teddy and Emmy-lou who is a texel.
Both long haired pigs will need regular grooming.
If interested please pm me or ring 0116 2869887

Aw they are gorgeous!!! Oh why can't I have more room!!!:roll::D

question for anyone who knows about piggy genetics... a texel is a rexed sheltie, right? and should therefore have curly whiskers too...? Emmy Lou hasn't got curly whiskers, and if she is related to Carrie, who is a teddy, could she be a teddied sheltie rather than a rexed sheltie? if so, is there a different name for this? :)

They're gorgeoous, all the Texels I've come across have had curly whiskers. There's a breed called the Swiss that is semi longhaired (but not like the one you've got) I think that has straight whiskers. You'd need to ask a breeder. On the other hand there are Teddies out there with straight whiskers and ones with curly whiskers and from good reliable breeding stock, this isn't always true about the curly whiskers I think...
Anyways, they're all very very gorgeous and I have a soft spot for the curly hairies especially.
How Gorgeous is Chuckie!

i wouldn't be there until 7:30-8:00 at the earliest anyway... :)
Anywhere on the A21 is good for me, or you can always pop down to Hastings on the Saturday? can't remember how far from you that is :?
we'll sort something out :D
