we have 11 (eleven) little fat piglets running around our front garden and the patio. the farmer is out and i don't know where or when he is likely to be back. he can't see them from his house.

oh dear, now they've started to go up the path to the our field (back garden). they look very cute. i have dealt with his calves, cows and, on one occasion, the young bull but i think this lot is beyond my capabilites.

what would you do?

[black_cat51]

go out!

[bookbinder]

Try to keep them where they are until expert help arrives.

I've seen on telly that 'hearding' them with a sheet of hardboard (or whatever) guides the piggies.
Do you have an outbuilding you could secure them in if you were to try it?

[albaqwerty]

d'oh herding

(really alba, stop being generous with yer letters)

[shoota]

Unless he's likely to be on AB I'd phone him.....

[lady-janine]

shoota - there is no one in to ring.

alba - they are running around in lots of different directions. no chance of herding or hearding.

[lady-janine]

no chance of keeping them in one place.

think i'll go and make a cuppa and read a book.

Barbecue?

[cupid04]

Could you borrow a neighbours dog to herd them..............

[wolf63]

Are they all screeching and screaming at once? Enough to put you off bacon for life.

[cupid04]

Shout bacon...................and flap your habit.........................

what would you do?
Glaze in honey and roast.

Is there a market near you?

[Peaspeculiars]

Oh dear, be prepared for a messy kitchen... could you bring them in? Shouldn't be too difficult to round them up, just make sure a camera is at hand please for us to give scores for your 100m sprints :-)

[lady-janine]

cupes - he's taken the farm dogs with him.

think i'll put suckling pig on the menu. how many do i need to cater for?

[cupid04]

This little piggy went to market...........lol at Wharton.............

[cupid04]

I'll bring the apple sauce:-)

[Psybbo]

[sandyRoe]

Bucket of rattling feed should get them to follow you to somewhere secure. If they hsve teeth hold tray near your legs so you dont get bitten.
