Colin Moves On

This weekend we took Colin to his new, life-long home.

We originally took in Colin in August this year, he was reported to have been a stray.

He wasn’t castrated, so we needed to sort that out, to get him ready for rehoming. Male pigs need to be castrated, this makes them less boisterous but more importantly, allows them to be paired with other pigs and prevents fighting and more unwanted piggies.

Colin is now being bonded with Jonathan, another castrated boy. Good luck Colin, we’ll miss your cheeky face, your talkative and playful nature.
