Piglets First Wallow
I dumped the pigs' muddy water out into a handy trench they´d dug right by their house. I am so grateful that they have not yet learned how joyous it is to dump their water out themselves, at which point we have to take measures to prevent them from doing it. So far they´ve been very restrained and let us do it for them. Each pig took a jubilant flop into the mud, one side, the other, and then Hey it´s my turn, the other pig.They didn´t linger. They came up evenly coated with mud, glistening except for one dry strip down the middle of the back, indistinguishable from the other. No socks, no blazes. Just mud.By the time I got my camera, they had moved on to other activities, like scratching on a cutoff tree.
