Activity certainly building up now with the hogs, last night it appears Lola and Harriet have made it through hibernation and are looking in good shape, so great to see them, looking much larger than last time I saw them. Gramps has been in and out of hibernation all winter, so he will be pleased to see his ladies have woken up, soon baby Catherine will be back from rescue to join in the fun Looking forward to seeing what they get up to!

Loving your hog home Karen, sadly I've had to stop feeding ours because for the first time since moving here rats have been having the food. I can only guess that it's because of the shops being shut so taking their food source away?

Here is my resident hoggy, he has been staying in the hog house tucked away under the rasperry bushes for the past few weeks, he leaves around 21.30 and gets back around 4.30am, the other two houses are used too but not as often as this one.

Hard to say really, but I would reckon about 3 or 4 regulars, mostly males. How about you?,

Fairly quiet hog wise at the moment compared to usual. Had my usual male sleep over for a few hours last night which was nice,they are not eating much food I put out for them either which makes me think there is lots of beetles and grubs naturally. I expect things will pick up as we go into Autumn, then of course the late juveniles will be around needing our help. Scales at the ready!
