Too cute! It's fun to have all the pups at once. Get a picture of you with all eight. I have a photo of me and 10 of the Hollister pups days old. It's sure fun to look back on.
Enjoy the little buggers. You are in for a lot of popping!

Were there any light colored babies. It was hard to see in the photos, but it does look like they are all dark like Gordon.
Gordon was thought to be a reverse agouti, dark with light tips.
I think we will call this one "Seven" as in Seven of 8, like a borg. His striping actually connects and goes across the back of his neck, but it wasn't apparent in this picture from the video.
Seven
Most of the pigs are dark in color. Some have cream or red and black tortoishell-type markings and a couple of others have reverse agouti colors near the head. One of the black ones is abby-ish w/ ridgeback hair, the rest are american smooth coat. The one that has cream and black, has split color on it's nose and is dark on his butt with cream polka-dots.
They're so cute when they all bunch up in the corner. Eight little piggies popcorning and being wiggy. One little guy popcorned so hard yesterday he jumped himself about a foot across the cage.
The little ridgeback likes to follow momma all around the cage, wherever she goes, there he is right behind. He knows where the food is!

He looks like a regular golden agouti with much less red than normal, to me. Regular golden agouti is black hair with red (looks orange) tips.
He's cute, though.

It looked like red to me. If it's silver, than he's a silver agouti like Hammer's avitar pig. But whatever he is, he has less color on his tips than a regular agouti, so he's not going to look like a normal one.
We are so excited to be able to watch these babies grow from birth. We have one of the sows from Santa Clara (Bugsy), and she gave birth to two stillborn pups 5 wks after arriving here. She was only about 2 1/2 mos old at the time. It was so sad. V and I were really torn up over that, but so glad she survived it. We're so thrilled that both of these mommas are alright, and all of these babies survived. We were so nervous as we watched each one be born, praying that each and every one would live. It's a blessing to have some new life here so soon after losing Hedwig. It sort of takes the pain out of losing her a bit.
I'm now a grandma at 32 y/o! He he.
I think I'm in the running w/ Erin. We now have 31 pigs in this house!

Oh my word. Hopefully you will be successful at keeping some of the boys together. We would LOVE to see some photos of these kids. You could toss one in of Steiner too, just for kicks. I'd love to see him now that he probably has all his hair grown in and nice and white.
