Description
These little piggies aren't going to market. Their next destination is as 4H pigs. They will probably get spoiled and treated with care, bathed a lot, and taught the basics of show ring procedure with the aim of winning ribbons. The pampering has already started; unlike the other shoats on this farm, along with their regular feed, these piglets have organic milk as a chaser. What happens after 4H? By then they will be sows and boars weighing in at 200 pounds or more; they will be eligible to be breeding stock, which would give them many more years of hog happiness.

Cute capture, especially with the middle pig staring suspiciously at the camera. I'm happy to hear that these pigs are destined for pampering not slaughter.

Thanks for the comment, Martha. Unfortunately the slaughter will happen, just delayed until after competitions, etc.
