My new Piggies, no names as yet.

Ok here are my new piggies, none of them have any names yet and I think I will leave the naming of the original 3 for when my boys come home from their holiday with their Dad.

Here are the 3 I was orginally giving a forever home to. The dark one is Dad (now neutered), then the second pic is Mum and daughter. I do like the names Duke and Duchess for the Mum and Dad, what do you think though?

And here are some of the 2 girls I have in my indoor maternity ward lol (these are the 2 that I found in a cardboard box in my garden on Monday. Again they have no names yet. Any suggestions?

Awwwww they're all very sweet :love:....... and lucky little things with all that veg.

As for names ....hhhmmm .... nothing's springing to mind....I'll have a think about it tho.

xx
 
Awww they're gorgeous! :love:

Lol no idea with names - I always have trouble with them myself!

Just a quick point though (I have piggies myself!) - red pepper is quite sugary and so is carrot so I'd limit those and wouldn't feed such large amounts. Carrots especially are a 'treat food'. Green pepper is the best to feed as it's low in sugars and high in Vitamin C.

Also; pellets should be limited as with bunnies - mine get an eggcup full a day - no more than that. Otherwise they will fill up on pellets and won't eat enough hay. Mine do get veggies twice a day though. :)

Hope you don't mind me mentioning these things! :oops:

If you have any questions please ask though x
 
I wish someone would leave pigs outside my front door :love:

Ooh, a florist bearing a bouquet of pigs.... :love:

Umm I think the easiest way of naming is to bring them all up to liverpool and I'll keep them and name them for you.
 
I like the names Duke & Duchess, they're lovely names for lovely piggies. You need something to match for the daughter.....how about Lady? Or Dame Piggy :lol: (don't worry, everyone thinks I suggest odd names.....:oops:)
 
LOL no I like the suggestion. One of mums friends said why not name them all after different herbs, then they can be a 'herd of herbs' lol

I always thought 'Dandelion and Clover' would make nice piggy names.... I also wanted a pair of tri-coloured smooth furred sows..... so how I ended up with two white PEW rexy boys called Tommy and Ronnie I'll never know! :lol:

No regrets though. :)

Dandelion and Clover are on the list :)

Don't forget I do have babies on the way too ;)
 
The pictures don't show up on my screen so I can only suggest names by guessing. How about Dad-Clover Mum-Petal Daughter-Dandelion :wave:

not good, they r sort of weird:oops::oops:
 
Duke, Duchess and Princess I think!

Sooo, other names...

My pigs are Pheobe, Ruby, Bethany, Maggie-May and Sonny, I like human names for animals.

How about flower names? Poppy, Violet, Daisey, Daffodil, Hyacinth, Rosie, Lilly, Basil, Buttercup, Pansy, Holly, Bryony... I could go on, but I'd bore everyone! I do love flower names!
 
Yes I really like that :) If I was keeping them as the 3 i would go for it :D but I am liking the idea I had of a 'herd of herbs'. As I have my 2 prgnant girls to add and any girl babies too (hoping it easy to add girls to a herd). So I think Dad will be Basil, and have a list of other herbs but yet to choose yet. I think I might wait till my boys get home and they can help me name them :D
