Normality is almost here!

This is a very very happy post.  Things are really getting fairly normal here.

New milestones:  Gypsy is doing proper wheeking for her food, real "where is my dinner!! wheek! Wheek!", the tearing round the cage is still going on, they have both started using the hay manger and Gypsy is using the water bottle (I can only guess they got enough water from their veggies so far).

Gypsy is definitely the braver and happier of the two.  She is clearly in charge and I hope that Bessie follows her lead and starts being a bit more confident in herself and her surroundings.

I have been putting them in the run every day for the majority of the day since they have been indoor pigs.  For 2 weeks or so they just scampered up the ramp and if it wasn't blocked off they would go hide in the bedroom.  So I blocked it off and today they acted pretty normally, going about eating grass for about 2 hours (from the cover of a fiddlesticks home).  After 2 hours they scampered up the ramp and stayed there so I brought them in.  They get on average 4 to 6 hours outside a day at the moment.  Winter it's inside runs only bless them!  Probably just as they get totally used to the outside run.
