A Piggy A-Z. A for Agouti.

We thought that we would start an A-Z of all things piggy and we want you all to join in.






I am ANGELINA Piggyfriend and I am an AGOUTI  so I am an "A" twice over!




Agoutis come in many colours but we all have a different colour underneath. ( Our Slave likes this pigture as it shows how round I am ). Our coat is ticked whereby the end of the hair is a different colour to the underneath. We look more like the original piggies that came from South America hundreds of years ago.

Do you have a piggy whose name begins with an A or do you have an ABYSSINIAN, an ALPACA or an AGOUTI?  If so, we would love you to contribute a pigture and a little story too if you wish.

Just look for the word Contribute at the top of our page ( under the photo of our esteemed leader ) and follow the instructions. It is so easy and we'd love to see you.

  2. Love the belly, Angelina. Our Roos is also an agouti, and we think slave hasn't share a picture of her yet for the rex piggy snap, so we will do a post with her and all our other Agouti piggies (there we quite some, slave like agouti rexes or us teddies) that used to be part of our herd...

    1. Thank you for the complements Lora and Guinygirlz! I think that it is all the lovely forage that Slave brings home for us that makes all the Piggyfriends nice and round.

      Nasty fungus. Hope your Slave bathed you all in Vet Sect Repel - the finest shampoo for getting rid of fungus ( and all other nasties ).

      Looking forward to your post Roos.
