Three Little Pigs

Jonah liked the cattle but really thought he would like to raise pigs.  So he bought three little ones which he appropriately named Bacon, Sausage, and Pepperoni. (It's a good thing to name them what they will be because it reminds you everyday what they are for.)

They were really fun when they were little.  Jonah put together a hay bale house and pen until a permanent shelter and fence could be built. He spent lots of time with those little pigs.


And they grew...a lot!

Pigs like two things ~ food & dirt!

In the end, they went with the steer to the butcher.  We all thought Jonah would be sad but he knew what the pigs were for and was good with that.  We kept two of them for the freezer and he sold the other as pork.  Pig raising was something he wanted to do again, for sure.
