Sleepy Piggies, Thirsty Ducks

These little piggies are 10 weeks old and growing fast.  They like to eat, sleep and test the social order (someone has to be the alpha).

Sleeping in the sun on a cooler day-
The solid black Mulefoot pigs, though smaller, typically sleep on top of the Hampshires.  Wondering if this is also a sign of dominance.





In the shade today, she looks happy-



These duckies are growing fast too, finally getting their real feathers.  And they like to drink ALOT, emptying this 2 gallon waterer daily between the 3 of them.  There is plenty splashing it about too.



Isn't drunk as a duck a saying, or is that because of how they walk?  I remember in some older Disney cartoons ducks being portrayed as barnyard drunkards, anyone else remember that?

Baby sweet corn coming up, first plot planting.  Second plot will be planted in 2 weeks or so.  Not an exciting note but I just like the picture.


Short and sweet for today.  All for now......
