TKG Take Ten: Friday : Hogs wag their tails

They do! Especially when they are eating their hay. Lots of it. It is a little known fact that pigs eat hay. And grass. And the roots of the grass.

Hand held. Again. With me sitting on a bucket.

This is a reader supported publication so thank you so much for reading. 🦋 Your support is putting the sustainable in my Sustainable Sunday.

Boo. Nanny Boo, is minding me. Then when I become too boring he goes off and minds the pigs and then when the pigs move him off he comes back to me. Poor BooBoo, a farm dogs life is so busy.

Especially when it comes to protecting these huge hogs from the chickens. Do you see him giving that black chook the look. Those two words rhyme by the way in NZ’ld. Chook and Look.

Right at the end I had to speak out loud to get Boo to sit still and not bash the camera! I don’t usually do that. I feel that my voice shifts the balance.

Now that it is a little warmer the birds are tweeting about again. So different from those silent frozen sub zero days. I wonder where they (the wild birds) go in a cold snap other that the chook house.

Have a great evening!

If upgrading is not possible – and I completely understand if it's not – and I am so grateful when you can - consider SHARING. There might be someone in your community who could use the comfort of spending 10 minutes on the farm. Let's spread gentleness during these tumultuous times.
