Piglet Updates | Animals | Forums

I don't think I posted about it, but we lost one of our new piglets to illness this week. We bought 4 originally and found one near death just 3 days later which ultimately had to be put down. Needless to say we were less than happy but we chalked it up to experience and went forward. Couple days later we were out and ran into the guy we'd bought them from. He is a nice fellow and wanted to know how piggies were doing so we told him what happened and then picked his brain awhile for things to look for, what he uses on his own pigs etc... To make a long story short, he felt like he sold us a sick pig and offered us a replacement. He offered it for free but we intend to split the cost with him because he seems like an upright guy. Just thought it was refreshing to do business with someone who is honest..... so many people aren't anymore. Have to go after the new one tomorrow, weather permitting. Others are doing well and growing already!
