Sunbathing and pig lunch

img_7234.jpg

It´s a nice hot day, so the chickens decided to flake out in the path.These are the Famous Five, the house moochers.  They just kind of tip over like beached boats, and stick out a wing.Even Jean Jacket's in there.Or they´ll find some shade where they can get it.Even a Brahma is lounging.I wanted to not get these pigs stuck on a 3x/day feeding schedule so it was possible to leave for the day, so they get their piggy rations morning and night, but to tide them over, they also get a 5 gal bucket of apples every day, or whatever fruit/scraps/vegetables (It's a good time of year to be a pig).Usually, there are several apples left over come supper time.  If there are no apples, then I know they had a big day, and they're legitimately hungry for dinner.Today they got turnips and kale too, and happily, they loved the kale, eating it first.  I wasn't sure after the cucumbers. They stand on it to rip a piece off with their mouths, like they've done it before. So cute!
