Could go horribly wrong craft.... Do you think 'Chops' would be too cruel a name?

A friend of mine kept goats and when one of his nanny goats gave birth she unfortunately had a billy.It was tiny and really cute......when I asked his 5 year old son what they had called it he said......Dinner.....

[China Doll]

You have to get them in twos so I could call one Cheeky and one Chops but I think that's a bit Twee....

Makes a change from Vietnamese pot-belied pigs, SO out of fashion now ! Pigs make good pets IF the pig is a piglet AND you only have the one.They are intelligent and very clean about the place.It was common for us to have the odd 'runt' in the house years ago. Better to 'save the bacon' of one that might easily be rolled on by the sow and die or isn't feeding well, so it can become bacon later ! Of course, you do have to replace them quite often, every time they are big enough to grow on to be eaten, in fact !
