Off-grid Homestead in Central Portugal /PIGGY DIARY

My lovely neighbours have been sending me daily videos of the piglets which I’ve put together to give you a KUNE KUNE PIGLET UPDATE.
I’ve been spending evenings creating designs of the kune kune pigs at Bela Pedra to put on t-shirts and other merch in my Redbubble shop. You can find some of them here by clicking on the links below. It’s still a work in progress as I’m working on more designs. When it’s all done, I’ll add them to my website as well.

  1. That is a shame but as you say it happens on a farm . My mum used sit up all night with her sows when they gave birth to lessen this, we used to say she loved her pigs more than us. This was unfair as we were old enought to cope and they were the our main monitory support. Tell the girls to let the little ones suck their fingers cannot do it after about ten weeks as they have sharp teeth,it was one of my favourite play times with the piglets. Lana Australia

  2. Great video about your visit with your mom and the piglets. I am so sorry that two of them didn't make it, I was so sad, but I also understand from living on a farm as a child on the island. Cheers to momma piglet and the ones who are thriving. You have terrific neighbors. Have a safe trip home. Besitos y Abrazos!

  5. Very sorry you lost 2 little ones 😔. Beaming health and cuddles to Cocopop's little fam and to you & yours in CT, Cindy. Glad you're having quality time with your mom and everyone. Hopefully, your brother Quentin might help you a bit some day with your own outdoor seating & firepit plans🤞🏼. Thanks so much for sharing an update. 💗

  6. The mother rolls on them thats why someone needs to with them making sure they get on the teat and not getting rolled on thats why you should not play at farming dont bread if you do not know how to look after them poor piglets

  7. Hello Cindy,I love the diary. the piggypops are adorable, I'm sure momma Coco is very proud ! looks like they were why with people in the first video, then they were more curious and not afraid. They may jump all over you when you get home ! ha ha …did i hear you say SEEDS? good to have a reserve for sure! LOVE your brothers place, the stone bench is awesome i'm sure he would be happy to tell you how he did it. Happy visit with mum, Do South Africans celebrate Mother's Day in May? I guess any time with mum is Mother's day. God speed on your journey home to your little family! Poor Thandi must be very confused without you.. Much love to all.!Annmarie
