Here are my saddleback gilts. I can’t introduce you to them properly as they haven’t been named yet!
I am going to name the pigs as I hope to breed saddleback pigs from them and so I intend to keep these gilts for a couple of years.
I would like a pair of names for the two female pigs.
Here are the names I have thought about so far;
- Salt & Pepper.
- Margot & Barbara.
- Ham & Bacon.
As you can see I am struggling to come up with a good pair of names, so if anyone has any suggestions then please leave a comment – thanks.
How about the following names for your Gilts.
Mild And Bitter
or Rooter and Router
All the Best
Farmer Giles

Keets are doing fine. One of the lavenders has white wings now. Update soon.

I try to think of movies or TV shows when I am looking for names for my critters.
I had two dogs named Cagney and Lacy. Birds Thelma Louise. Ginger and Mary-Ann, (from a TV show)etc
