The Vermont Muench Family Blog

Bill and I just came in from serving dinner to our piggies. They are sooooo adorable and fun to watch. We have two blacks, and two oreo colored with one gender representing each color. We have had visitors as far as Chittenden. Our woods is looking nice and rotatilled. We are feeding them pig mash which I mix with a little warm water for a lovely texture and dining experience. We also collect scraps from our meals however because I cook enough to eat for 4 their scraps consist of scrapings from a pan here and there....although they did polish off a watermelon rind yesterday. Gus is like a mama to them. He walks around the pen sticking his nose in and he enjoys licking their mash covered noses. The boys come and look but are afraid of being too attached now. We may have to buy pigs from somewhere else since all of our pigs are named Wilbur! So far we are enjoying our new role as hog farmers.
