Piglets!

Chou Chou and Mimoulette had their babies, right on time!  The gestation period for pigs is 3 months, 3 weeks, and 3 days and they both delivered right on their due dates, June 1 for Mimoulette, and in the middle of last night for Chou Chou.  Mimoulette is the proud mama of 6 healthy babies, while Chou Chou has 10.  Such excitement!



All Chou Chou's little squealers have very good appetites!

Mimoulette, showing off her trim post partum figure.  Look at that gleam in her eye!

Chou Chou invites us in to have a look.

She spent hours building a little grassy nest for a cozy nursery.  It comes in handy
when she steps out for a bite to eat.

After making sure all her babies are fed, Chou Chou finally
gets around to having a meal.  Motherhood's a thankless job.
