So we're going to move the Dented Barn. Not a small move, one to the other side of the world. South West France to be precise. With our place in New Zealand on the market and steadily packing stuff we don't need, someone clearly forgot to tell the pigs we are trying to downsize!! First litter for this girl, 10 healthy wee babes. Before you ask, no we didn't put the boar in with her but clearly he had needs..... Just saying

So Miss Spot gave birth today to 12 healthy wee babies. Not that we're trying to downsize or anything......

9 years ago yesterday, 31st March, represents our new beginning here at The Dented Barn. Every year we grow, we learn, adapt and overcome. This last year has been 'moist' with multiple floods and cyclones, but we are still standing strong!

Pm update...
Whilst away, Mrs Dot had another piglet, meaning nine live 1 stillborn. The two smallest weren't overly mobile, and were burrowed under the hay. This leaves them prime targets to be rolled on by the new mum. So into protective custody comes Eddie Murphy, darker markings and Harry Potter with the zigzag on his head!

Final count is 8 live births and one stillborn. 9 for a first time mum is fabulous. Now to watch her over next 48 hours,...
