Piggyfriends line up. Out-takes.

We started our line up with Dandelion but she let the side down by facing the wrong way.

Then, just as we were good to go, she burrowed under Agent Big Red, who carried on munching his celery. Nothing stops him from eating.


Dandelion was returned to her pen in disgrace to be replaced by Otto but something must have distracted Agents Flower and Big Red.

A Challenge for the Herds. The Piggyfriends' line up

We have had some success in lining up some of the Piggyfriends for a photoshoot!  We have some out takes to show you another time but here are pigtures of a set of six and another of seven.

The six are - Agent Firenze and her friend Lavender with Agents Flower,  Big Red, Bouquet and their friend Otto. Not a very neat line but they are all facing the same way.

The line of seven are - Agent Firenze, Lavender, Agents Flower,  Big Red,  Bouquet, their friend Fennel and Agent Avatar.

We might have squeezed in another piggy but we used the sofa so that they did not all run away and some of these piggies are quite wide and filled up all the space ( it is only a little sofa ).

Celery was used as a bribe to get our identity parade lined up. Now, sir,  can you identify which of these guinea pigs was responsible for the mugging?

A Challenge for the Herds

Agent Minty reporting in.
 
A first attempt at lining up some Piggyfriends has not met with absolute success but you did ask for out takes. Here is one of the more amusing ones.
 
Sorry Agent Java. Slave will try again. Better luck next time!

Sleeping method: the Ear Wiggle


Out of the 2009 archives: Agent Thunderbear curled up like a croissant with(!) wiggly ears.

The method itself was excellently covered by Agent PorkChop and Agent Lettuce but we thought the video makes a good addition to their report.

The Surrey Squeakers Summer Crib



Oooh the Squeakers would love to see their new pen on the blog!

The whole pen has a sturdy wooden frame of treated wood, and the wire is strong 1" x 1/2" mesh, except for the roof which is 1/2" x 1/2" mesh. The company who made it kindly sent us some offcuts of mesh (at a very small price) to go all the way round the bottom edge to stop rats burrowing in. The pen is 6 feet tall, 9 feet deep and 12 feet wide and is big enough to take both the big hutches, one large shelter (for eating grass deliveries when it's raining), and 10 pigloo type houses. The Squeakers love it!

We love the Squeakers new pen although Mummy says we havent got room in our garden for one humphhhh
