He has been using the for a while now so is obviously not in pain :) LWB also needs a name, he can't go through life being called LWB! The swelling on LWBs leg has gone down a lot this wheek.

The Little White boar is friendly with Mr Marvellous :) Precious is turning out to be the most vocal and is always at the front of the cage waiting for any goodies that might just come her way :) They still have lots of growing and filling out to do but they're moving in the right direction.

Although Solo is still on his own he has quietened considerably which points to the fact that he no longer needs to attract attention- the other pigs often go and lay by his cage :) Solo now lives in pen inside a large pen containing a group of guineas.
