Dont think I mentioned yet. But I picked up a pig thursday. From same amish feller. This'ns a girl. So I can eaither eat her or raise'r up an have some young'uns. I'll get some pics as soon as we both get over the skittish part. Sat night when I got home from work, I took some hushpuppies na corn from work out to her. She was sound asleep in the middle of the pen. I hollered an hollered. I thawt, "gosh dang, she done went an ate sumpthin bad an croaked. Finally I smacked her with a hushpuppie an work her up. She got right up an soon inhaled everthing I brought. Gotta short story bout the goats. Yesterday whilst I was thinkin bout gettin ready for work. I heard Mr Gruff doin his snortin thing. He's been overcome by heavy testosterone levels all week. An I looked out an Dink (mom of new grandkids) was standin near the fence Flickin her tail an wavin her butt rite in front of Gruff. All he could do was poke his nose thru an sniff. Was drivin him crazy. I thawt, "man, where have I seen that before?!" I see that at work an just bout anywhere, where theres boys an girls. ;D Anyhow, when I opened the gate ta feed em, he just bout ran me over tryin ta get at her. Good thing he aint very big. An as luck would have it, she wasnt there. I been feedin her an the kids sumwhere else. If his actions say anything, Rosie orta be havin sextuplets come bout feburary. lol

Nah, keep the pig and raise the little uns to eat. What with the way meat keeps goin up it's gonna be cheaper to raise yer own.
