Have 6 boys for sale. Super healthy and strong lads. Other than getting milk from mum they're already eating grass and are being spoiled daily with apples, carrots, bananas and multi-feed nuts. They'll be wormed and ready to go to their new homes sometime between the 5th and 19th of November depending on how well they've been weaned. Pickup in Wainuiomata.
Photo of each one below along with photo of mum and dad and a newborn photo. $100 each. $30 deposit to reserve your piglet.

A disused section in the city centre will be the first to go, beginning on 10 October. Removing the entire 82 kilometres of overhead wires will take 12 months, starting in November. Power to the trolleys will be switched off on 31 October.
Greater Wellington Regional Council says the trolleys have served the city well over the decades, but it’s time to look to new environmentally-friendly technology that can be used throughout the entire city and region. It says that next year the region will get a new fleet of low-emission diesels, as well as 10 electric double-deckers – and in the next few years there’ll also be another 22 electric double-deckers. Eventually the whole fleet will be electric, it says.
