Feeding
Time At Janet's Place
Just
wanted to let everyone know about Janet's pigs....they are all liars,
cheats, and sneaks!! It's the truth!!! Janet sent me out to feed
night before last......all by myself. She's told me for months that
every pig knows where it belongs and will go right into it's pen
and wait to be fed.
Yeah,
right!!!
They
must have all had a collective mind far* the other night. It had
to be them as I'm sure I left my "I am a sucker" sign
in my house under Jimmy's careful watch. So, I go out with great
expectations that everyone will cooperate like Janet said they would.
Matilda
was cool, and the Babes....everything okay so far. On to the front
pen with 6 pigs in it.....someone forgot how to count. LOL
Ten pigs crowded around the trough. At this point I'm not even sure
any of them belonged in there! With the help of the pen police,
Buddy BadAss, we got that pen all worked out. Of course by then
Matilda was done with her dinner and looking for more. I'm trying
to latch the gate while she's trying to move it out of the way.
But we got through it.
Then,
I figure by this time everyone else is in their proper places and
I can begin feeding in earnest. I couldn't have been more incorrect!!
I found 10 pigs, 4 chickens, and 3 peacocks where there's supposed
to be 4 pigs. I look outside the pen and realize 2 of the pigs who
belong here are out there staring in.
So,
we finally got all of that straightened out and off to the next
pen. Nine bowls mean 8 pigs. Did you know pigs can't count???? There
were at least 2 pigs for every bowl plus some wanderers. Pen police
helped me out here too-sorta. LOL
By
the time I got to the last pen, I turned around to see I had several
pigs with me who had been following me around eating everybody else's
food and having a great time doing it. Sausage, the pig with 5"
long legs was there, so was Blue Eyes and deaf Billie Jean and they
were all using their "disabilities" to selfish purposes.
I looked
at Sausage who was running from bowl to bowl and I said "I
thought you got fed in the barn because you had a hard time traveling
up and down the stairs?" She just looked at me like "Yeah,
don't give my little secret away, okay?" Blue Eyes was staying
in the shadows as I'm sure her light colored eyes are very light
sensitive... yeah right! She was hiding so I wouldn't notice she'd
eaten in every pen so far!
Billie
Jean: "Oh, did I step on your foot and break your toes trying
to get to that dish of food??? I'm deaf so I just didn't hear your
blood curdling scream. You know, my loss of hearing is due to a
nutritional imbalance, so the more you give me the better my hearing
may become. Of course there's only a .000000000000000000001% chance
of that happening but, hey, let's try it, okay????"
By
the time I got up to Janet's house two hours had gone by and my
boys hadn't even been fed yet!!! Janet greets me with "Did
everyone get fed?" All I could say is I think so, I hope so,
I'm not sure. I'm going to bed now, night." LOL What a night
that was!!!!
Looking
back, I realize everyone of them except Winston (he doesn't associate
with pigs, is NOT a pig, and how dare you feed me pig chow!) are
liars, cheats, and sneaks.....double dippers!!!! They didn't care
who's food they ate as long as it wasn't there's and that they got
theirs too! They acted like a bunch of pigs!
Meri,
who hopes tonight will go a bit smoother-Janet made me a map!!!!
