Right now we are dealing with 7 piglets in the house and believe me they can hold out way longer then we can.  We have learned where the term "Pig Headed" has come from. 

We are trying to get them off bottles and onto bowls and they are having none of it.  Today they chose not to eat for 6 hours and to scream at us until we final gave in.  We have used every trick we can think of to get them to drink out of the bowls.  If any of you can think of a trick let us know because we cannot go without sleep much longer.  Two days this week no one will be home and let's be honest, I cannot take 7 piglets to a sitters. 

While I am all for saving as many lives as we can this is becoming ridiculous.  HELP - your ideas and suggestions are needed.

Good News, Farmers Insurance is coming through for us.  We are in the process of getting estimates for the removal of the old barn and reconstruction of the new barn.  When we built the last barn it was for goats and horses.  Now that we know exactly what we are using the barn for it is being designed with the pigs in mind.  There will be ample outlets as well as insulation and proper heating.

The cause of the fire was electrical but not the heat lamps.  Dan will be taking all the precautions necessary to ensure that this cannot happen again. 

Thank you all for your kindness and support!

Aren't Penny and Franklin cute making a mess out of my house?
