After a long wait Beryl finally had her litter of piglets in the early hours this morning. Once she got started they just kept coming...

Beryl's litter suffered heavy losses over the first week (still awaiting post mortem results) so I'm grateful to see this excellent gilt is doing well.

Slowly recovering after major flu/virus but last weekend saw the first litter for 2024. Just 2 piglets in the end but they're indoors out of the weather and doing well so far

Upending the water trough can't make things much worse I suppose but I'd rather they didn't do that
