AWESOME. 3lbs is the benchmark of a truly Big Boy.

My girls weigh around 2.5 pounds. I love big, squishy pigs!

Squishy, he is! I told him he could be happy and rotund as long as he didn't herniate. No more of that, please! :) He's such a love.

IME, fat pigs are always cuddly. Or just to fat to run away quickly.

ETA: Oliver is holding steadily at 2# 11 oz - don't think he's going to make it to 3. They go through 25# of hay. A month. :-o

He's not fat, there is just more of him to love!

I'm shocked I survived the amount of stinkeye I received this morning. The boys ran out of KM's third timothy for 1 whole day. Oh, the horrors! Mind you, they HAVE 3rd timothy of another less spectacular brand, and they also have KM's bluegrass. This is not good enough, apparently.

Their shipment arrives today, which was little comfort to Oliver who was standing up on the side of the cage glaring as I left for work.

As you can see above, they are both underfed and neglected. Poor dears.

How could you mistreat those poor innocent piggies this way??? ;)

*In a quiet whisper*

I'm leaving Thursday morning for vacation... I am SINCERELY hoping that everyone stays well, both before my departure and while I'm gone. I will be giving my pigsitter my login info and CareCredit card, just in case, so if she posts medical questions here, please help her out!!

I will probably post some more pics before I leave, but just in case, thought I would let you all know.

Dude, don't say stuff like that OUT LOUD!

That's why I whispered! :)

Sitter has been briefed on new piggy procedures, weights are steady. Poops have been shorter in length for the last week or so, but are normal in roundness/thickness color and wetness, so I'm trying not to worry. Weights are steady. I seem to remember that happening before, and things went back to normal without incident *knocks wood*

I'll be fine once I'm on the plane but I'm a nervous momma right now :(

My best friend came over a couple of weeks ago and was keeping me company while I cleaned the cage. When I was all done she said, as if it should be self-evident, "I never want to touch anything that you touch with your hands ever again."

I mention this only because I love people who measure/analyze piggy poops before traveling. Because of course you do. :)

Have a great trip!

I'm sure the boys will behave. Have a good time!

At least Oliver waited for me to get home before getting sick. How considerate of him. :-/

Grrrr!
