    Now, I have heard of grand-dogs and grand-cats, but these are the first grand-piglets! Congrats!

    Are those all one litter in the third picture?

    Does Mom have enough places for that many piglets?

    They are cute little critters.

    It is amazing how fast they grow! I think I read they double their weight every day for a while....don't remember how long!

    The first picture is one litter. There were 7 but she lay on one and it died. The third picture is a litter of 13 piglets. They are all pink, no spotted ones there.

    We have been to Niagara Falls years ago. It is very nice in that part of Ontario for sure. They grow all kinds of fruit and veggies and have ice wine which I love.

    Been there, done that........lots of times. And I'm proud to say my first "bottle baby" went on to raise two champions at our county show.
