I’m still trying to sort out our PigPass, this allows me to sell pork from the farm to the public – it’s a kind of Quality Assurance guarantee. It’s bread day and of course it’s an early morning drive into town. We had a little bit of misty rain when I left the house, but I don’t think it amounted to more then 0.2 – 0.5mm’s.
It’s time for the orphans to be exiled to the pig yard. One of the little dears has started jumping out of their box. I was making their weetbix last night when I got a real fright as she ran her wet nose up the back of my leg. So; maybe tonight there will be no animals in the barn/house.
The bushfire started by lightning in the State Forest to our west is still going. It’s a week since it started. Another broke out on Thursday about seven kilometres to our south west as well, but that fire has been out for a couple of days.
I nearly locked George in with the pigs this morning. The trouble maker pushes his way in to get a feed of bread in the morning and because it was dark I didn’t see him. I think he would have been quietly upset and rather put out if I had of left him there. I wonder if they would have eaten him???

I hope that bush fire get put out and soon. As you guys need anymore of them - not. Hope you get your Pig Pass all sorted out and on leaving George in with the pigs - maybe they would have eaten him? I've seen pigs eat chickens alive before now - not nice.
Hi MBFC, I noticed your helping out on Farmblogs, good luck with that. I feel a little bit responcible being the one who reccommended you to them in the first place. I've heard of pigs eating chickens, we havent lost any yet!
Well I had a shock when I saw this Farm Blogs thingo appear on my Reader. So I went over and there was your recommendation. I'll say thank you rather than where's the brick bat. Pigs do eat live chickens. If I ever get any pigs I'll keep the chickens here well away. I like pigs great animals and they taste nice as well.
