Remember the ten little piggies?  Well, they are not so little anymore.   They have become fast growing, constantly pooping beasties that even their mom will be glad to separate from next week. Maria still loves them and they like to curl up together but life is a never ending search for food, and more food.

Question: How much food can a pig eat at one sitting?

Answer: Nobody knows. They never stop eating long enough to find out.

They are still fun to watch and the center of attention for our visitors, but now it's more along the lines of, "Wow! Look how big they are!" as opposed to the "Aww, how cute!" stage. We will be keeping three and the others will find new pastures in about a month.
So in three months, they have gone from one pound to about forty pounds. Now that's a weight gain to be proud of for sure.

The Piggies Got Big!
