Pigs & Hens











What a delightful day. We visited our 'foster' pig - a Gloucestershire Old Spot called Holly. Much larger than we had anticipated. Hope to get her within the next few weeks. Our plan is to get her in piglet & then once she has finished rearing them we will give her back to her owner. She'll probably miss the rest of her family - another GOS, 2 sheep, a Charlais Cross, an Irish Moile, a donkey, a Shetland pony & 3 Sussex hens + her human owners. After the photo call we traversed to Rowallane Gardens & had a lovely walk around the walled garden. Will have to visit next month when the Rhodes are in full bloom. Next to Ballynahinch to view the hen arks where we purchased one for delivery on Sat.
