Hot pig slops, yum!

These pigs are going to be spoiled (well, in a way-they'll be sleeping outside), but they're going to get hot meals.  Cooked potatoes kept warm on the woodstove all night with hard feed, or some hot water and milk over meal.After all, who wants to dig into a cold bowl of cereal on a sub-zero morning?  Not me.This is the best time to have a pig, there's so much food.  Potatoes and squash and apples and greens, loads of waste veggies.  Between the pigs and the birds, nothing gets wasted.  The pigs get the chicken food fines, the chickens pre-graze the pig lunches:The pig lunch buckets get lined up a few days ahead. I pick up a wheelbarrow load of apples at a time, and the garden greens day before usually, so the chickens get first crack at the buffet.  They don't hold back.  Sometimes they're in a mood and clean up on the kale, sometimes not.  They also choose a few apples and pull them out of the bucket to eat.
