Merab's Herd

[Merab]

Making up for the 2 days they didn’t get HayBox meadow hay and had to make do with an alternative




Lunchtime coriander snack - as they hadn’t been fed since they couldn’t remember when the coriander didn’t stand a chance!

Some Phoebe spam.
I had a moment of panic this morning when there was no sign of her. Phoebe is usually waiting at the food bowl for breakfast.
I found her tucked right into the corner of the corner tunnel, obviously it’s so comfortable and snug that even breakfast couldn’t tempt her out.

Midday snack time

 

[Tara95]

Aww they're all so beautiful especially the Cruella pig! What a lovely herd you have!

 

[Bill & Ted]

I agree they are lovely

Pigs just love snack time don’t they!
I’ve made the mistake of getting in the habit of giving them a piece of cucumber each when I get home from work. They now expect this everyday without fail!
Your herd is utterly gorgeous

 

[T-Rex]

Well these photos are adorable! I’m so pleased they like the corner tunnel. Makes my heart happy.

 

[Siikibam]

Your piggies are all so I have to say I'm developing a soft(er) spot for Priscilla.

They weren’t sure at first but after I washed it it smelled tight and they all love being in it.
It is now visibly full of poops every morning!

Some Priscilla spam.
She would like to point out that while she may bear a superficial resemblance to Cruella de Vil, she is not an evil psycho piggy.

 

[Merab]

We can’t leave out Micah from the spam posts.

 

[T-Rex]

You have gorgeous piggy’s. I love pricillas fur. They are beautiful

Beautiful walking wig spam!
Shame though, Aliona was hoping for a friend at the minute that she could wheek to! Fleece change earlier (my washing machine has decided to completely break today so still sitting around! ) and she decided she was full from veg and jumped straight off the sofa! Thankfully she’s fine but a bit psycho piggy for shy her!

Glad Alina wasn’t hurt.
They’re so fast!
Appliance breakdown is a real pain.
I remember when our dishwasher broke - it blew all the fuses in the house and I spent a happy, slightly soggy evening emptying it out!

Hope you can get it fixed or replaced quickly

Thanks, yes think she’s ok, ran around after Luigi enough all afternoon so definitely not acting like it hurt! She’s really not her at all, it’s very odd!
Poor you, that doesn’t sound too pleasant! I’ve got insurance on it thankfully, but spent an hour on hold earlier then someone answered and the phone went dead! I’m trying again tomorrow, will hand wash my smaller vet bed for now etc but my mum said I can use her machine for the bigger fleece thankfully, will leave at door etc! x

My past dental piggy (the first one actually), Meemee, used to do that! If she decided she's done with feeding time on the sofa, she just jumps off. That's why we can't take our eyes off her. Hubby and I once caught her doing that. The way she did it, she would move forward and then slowly slide down the curve edge of the sofa, like superman flying downwards! She was so clever doing it that way without hurting herself. Our old sofa was a bit lower than what we have now so she easily managed to do it. Obviously we didn't encourage her doing such thing, hence if it was feeding time and I need to go to the kitchen or in another room, hubby has to look at her and stop whatever he is doing just so she won't jump the sofa.

This was the cheeky girl.

Weighing day - both girls down a bit but nothing to be concerned about.
Micah still a chunky 1456g
All fit and healthy.

Nail trimming plus bum trim for Priscilla.
She was in full diva mode today.
She ales discovered that if she tucked herself in the corner of the corner tunnel then it was so much harder to get her out.

Phoebe wriggled - in piggy olympics she would win gold paws down.
We decided it would be easier if I held her and daddy trimmed.
Phoebe wriggled and ended up getting her quick cut.
One bowl of cornflour, half a pack of dill and 2 baby wipes later all was well - apart from my top,
As you can see - she looks very traumatised!

 

[Kellykels]

oh Micah you chunky monkey!
Priscilla queen of the divas!
Truffle did something similar in a circus hidey when we were trying to get her out to put Xeno on her. (From them having Lice top up)

Me : Pour her out Mark! Or is she clinging to the side?
Husband: she's clinging! Come on baby bean....it's ok.
Me: Truffle stop clinging love, ok you pour, I'll push....

This makes it look more dramatic then it was but Truffle is a drama queen and we were trying to get her out but she really dug in. She hates being handled.

 

[Merab]

Sometimes I wonder!

 

[Merab]

I am the King of this Haypile

 

[Kellykels]

Your majesty.... I crown you king of the forage.

 

[VickiA]

Oh gorgeous Micah. He does look resplendent, lounging on his hay pile.

 

[PigglePuggle]

Piggy daddy was very happy to see photos of giant Micah lording it over the hay, but not quite as excited as Jezzy floof was! Micah is definitely Jezzy's Valentine pin-up dream

 

[PigglePuggle]

Jezzy is striking her most alluring Valentine's day pose for Micah! She says, look at all this haybox big boy! Mwah mwah! x

 

[Bill & Ted]

How could Micah resist

Micah says Jezzy can be his Valentine any day

All piggies nice and clean, weighed and checked.
Priscilla has dropped more weight this week and I have heard her rumbling which is unusual for her. No sign of fur loss or crusty nipples but I think I need a vet check in case she’s developing ovarian cysts.
I’m certain it’s not dental as I watch her demolishing a carrot cottage, pellets, cucumber and hay.

Waiting patiently for the cage to be cleaned


Their new favourite tunnel is back, fresh from the laundry



Yeaaah - veggies! We were starving while slave was messing around with the cage!

Love the bum shot of Priscilla showing her fluffy trousers. A very neat bum cut too!

Thank you.
