I'm all behind and need to upload more stuff and even get the links to Tiggy Takes Over the Teach n' Treat game added here too. :·)
The piggies are doing well, Misty is still a little shy and still dives for cover under her fleece but I think it's more of a habit now. If the fleece has ended up in a bundle on the floor due to Tiggy rolling herself up in it, Misty starts pop corning all over it and nosing through it, certainly not fearfully trying to hide! She also gives Tiggy some competition in the loudness stakes at mealtimes - what a squeaker!
One reason for the delay in pics is that I have a new toy! Birthday and Christmas money went together (with a little extra input from me) and I got a new digital SLR camera. :·) Still refreshing my memory after years of film SLRs and being lazy over my smaller digital compacts but hoping to get some reasonable pics up soon.
The pigs are currently unimpressed by the bigger, noisier, brighter beast being pointed in their general direction... maybe that's why Misty is more inclined to hide after all. ;o)

Happy Belated Birthday. I just caught up from Christmas. Congrats on your new addition. Rosie came to live me about the same time. Misty is so cute, but I can totally relate to Mrs. Tiggy. There is just too much outside the cage to inspect. She just doesn't have time to sit still for the flashy thing. I can't wait to see more pictures of the new bffs.

Thanks Hunybee. :o)
Here's a little movie with the two of them and the Teach n' Treat game. Misty doesn't get much of a look in yet with it, but at least is not spending all her time hiding. :o)
Misty and Tiggy - game on!
And just to keep them all together, the other movies with Tiggy and the Teach n' Treat game.
Tiggy tries Level 1
Tiggy comes back for more on Level 1
Tiggy won't share Level 1
Tiggy moves on to Level 2
Tiggy tries again at Level 2
Tiggy masters Level 2
Tiggy attempts Level 3
Tiggy succeeds at Level 3
The weather has been so dull recently with snow forecast, I haven't had much of a chance to practice with the new toy yet!

Glad to see you got yours adjusted for Level 3 Pigjes, I'm sure my pigs find this one the most satisfying. :o)
It's high time my Chronicles were getting updated though I shouldn't really be spending extra time on the computer. After last year's car accident I've been having trouble with my shoulder and after a poor attempt at lifting my new works computer onto my desk, I felt I ruptured something. Anyway, turns out I still have evidence of whiplash (that A&E told me wasn't the case on the night), I have RSI in that shoulder and a pulled ligament with lifting the computer wrongly. Unfortunately I cannot change mousing hands as I already have problems in the other shoulder from too many years at a computer before ergonomics became a buzzword in the workplace. So I am supposed to restrict my computer time... but that's too, too difficult!
Anyway, enough ramblings about me and time to get some pig pics up here! Poor Misty will be thinking I have something against her. Although she isn't the easiest to get pics of when she's on the floor as she disappears in a blur and cloud of hair. She's not casting nearly as much as she was which is good as I could have made an angora sweater out of it by now. ;o)
So without further ado, Tiggy has been up to her usual tricks.
"I ain't done nothin'!"
Misty is still a tad wary and has glow in the dark eyes. ;o)
"Eh?!"
"Wot now?!"
"I have an itch..."
Tiggy has taken to telling me when she wants to play The TnT Game and will drag it out herself. I think she may be an addict...
Misty also plays it...
... but not with quite the same intensity as Tiggy.
"MINE... ALL MINE!"
After all the game play, there is only one thing left to do... chillout and relax!
As for Misty, she gets quite flustered with Tiggy's attempts at rounding her up at mealtimes and bedtime so has developed the annoying habit of grabbing some hay from wherever is convenient and running to wherever is most comfortable. At least I know where she is - you just follow the hay trail. It wouldn't be quite such a big deal if it wasn't in my house and they weren't freerange pigs. I do not relish housework at the best of times but this is simply getting too much to bear!
Meanwhile, Tiggy is still full of surprises. At weighing time the other week, I had Misty on my lap on the floor after getting her weighed and was giving her some cuddles and cucumber when Tiggy decided she must be missing out. Since her attempts at getting cukes from me by trying to climb into my lap were clearly futile and ignored, she came up with an idea. The flat scales were on the floor with a shallow bowl and cosy bed on top for placing the pigs into. Smart Tiggy realised the only way to get cukes is to get weighed, so she jumped into the cosy bed on the scales all by herself! Result! I got the weight and she got the cucumber! If only it was this easy ALL the time. :o)
