Me too, 'the boys' sometimes OH will say the human ones or the furry ones?! and I get funny looks in Asda getting broccoli stalks and saying they're for my boys!
They always were my 'girls'. Then Sylvie turned into a pushy dominant little 'it girl' so I got a boar Spud to keep her in check & they became known as the Martini Pigs (beautiful people as the advert said!).
Now after getting the 2 rescue pregnant sows who have had babies I have started calling them the 'Swampies' due to where they came from!
So I have 'the girls', the 'Martinis' & the 'Swampies'.
will mine are called holly, meggie lilly and will the 4th one is a molly or a max
but i call the older 2 who are a year old (holly, meggie) fatties as there are wel fat well holly is anyways and the funny thing I'm a childminder with my mum and this little boy we look after who was 2 in demcber calls them fatties now aswell or sometime we call them the big ones
lilly and molly/max well i call them the babies or the little ones
I currently have 16 piggies.

Sadly most of them have passed over now because I lost a lot to gastroentritis.
The piggies that I have today are:
Creamy - Self Cream
Tara - Self Golden
Cucumber - Tri Colour Pet
Nina - Self Golden
Lily-Pad - Chocolate Himmy
Loba - Chocolate & Golden Satin
