Jasmine (Strawberry Roan) x Bramble (Brindle) (due from 22nd September 2008)
Two lovely baby sows born to Jasmine 22nd September 2008!
Jennifer & Jessica
Sugar (Red & White) x Sonnet (Tort & White)
Three babies born 12th October 2008, 2 sows and a boar. The first two are almost all white!
The last little baby, very nearly didn't make it. When I went out to them on Sunday morning, poor Sugar was in a right panic, and hadn't properly cleaned the babies up. The all still had the sacks round their legs and the last little baby was stone cold. I spent a long time rubbing the babies clean, especially the last little tort & white and put them all, including Sugar in a box with a hot wheaty bag and bought them inside. She has now settled really well with them and being very attentive. I discovered later that the little tort and white sow has a deformed front leg, but it doesn't seem to stop her getting around very quickly! They have been named Oscar, Olive and Olga.
Update: 28th October 2008. Two weeks on Olga's front leg is now completely normal and although originally the bigger of the three, she is now the smallest but seems to be rather a character so fingers crossed she will be fine.
