Q, (my fiancé) thought Oliver needed a friend (yes, he's a keeper), and we ended up adopting a trio (yes, trio) of boys from the Animal Rescue League in Des Moines. Meet:

And, McElroy (Texel cross - he is the cutest little Brillo pad!)

After quarantine, they survived the least eventful intros, and are living happily as a 4-boar SuperHerd!

More to come, hope everyone is well!

I'm glad things are looking up for you! That is one lovable dog, too!

It's so good to get an update, and such a happy one at that. I'm so happy for you and your lucky furries.

I always remember you and your stories of Mouse fondly. So glad you still have pigs in your life, as well as an adorable puppy and a great guy!

Hello from Iowa! It is finally spring here, and the pigs are glad to see the sunshine!

We have transitioned from a snuggly winter to aaaaalmost summer! Picture heavy post, will keep text to a minimum - we all know you are here to see the pictures anyway! :)

Superherd! (from bottom, clockwise: Rocky, Oliver, McElroy, AJ)


The superherd is thriving, and everyone is all grown up!


Flashback to last year, when they were so tiny! The boys' "gotcha" day is on May 1, and will mark one year!


The herd patriarch is doing well also (knocks wood)






Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying spring!

What a great crew you have!

[GrannyJu1]

I think so, too!

Good to see you, iastate09! Impressive herd you've got there.
