I think someone was asking about her before Christmas but I haven't heard anything further so if you are interested I would send Jill a pm.

Dominica may well be looking for a home.
Babies were given island names as their relatives were named with that topic
So, named after the islands of Japan and pic taken when quite newborn and with mum meet
1st multi coloured (with white shoulders) - Honshu
2nd dark multi coloured - Hokkaido
Mainly dark - Kyushu
White (with red eyes) - Shikoku

and one of Kyushu and Shikoku

Jill I have pm'd re offering Dominca a home if she is still available. I am looking for a single sow that is ready to live outdoors with our neutered rescue boar who lost his wifey pig at New Year.
