Hi All;
Big exciting day for the piggys today!
The first exciting thing that happened was I moved the pickup truck to the load ramp.
I opened up the lower gate and moments later all three had come up the ramp into the truck to see the new spot!
And what an awesome spot it is!!!   It has its own grain bin!!!  New elevated view of waving fields of hay... WAY COOL!

AND THEN...   I opened up the third rotational pen to them!!!  It has a huge apple tree for shade and on most years a bunch of apples to eat.
Sadly this year a storm blew off the blossoms and we have no apples on any of the trees :(

Meanwhile pen number one is greening back up nicely!

All in All a banner day in the short life of a happy piggy!

Thank you, Thomas, for sharing about your happy pigs.

It sounds like all went well and the piggies are enjoying their new jungle, oops I mean pen.
