So now there are six! Dudley has joined the crew. There was much excitement in the home when the girls came home from school. They didn't know that I had collected him and then suddenly saw him in the garden. This was followed by exuberant singing of 'More pigs than people, more pigs than people' in the house.
Dudley is a rescue piggie from the RSPCA and is approximately 11 months old. He is a tri-coloured long haired Peruvian and we are hoping that he will pair up with Pepper and become her mate. He has been neutered so there will be no babies!
Miss Erin named him after the character in the Harry Potter books, Dudley Dursley, known as the 'pig in a wig' which is actually a great description of him. He is going to take some trimming and grooming but that suits Miss Erin.
So far so good in the courtship department. They seem to be getting along ok and I am quietly confident that this could be a good match. At the moment we love watching him run about with all his hair trailing behind him and chasing Pepper around the run.
