"Will you impregnante one of your Red Wattle Hogs with one of your Red Wattle Boars, then prove the pregnancy, then prove she is free of all other diseases, then keep her safe and healthy the next 15 weeks, then prove she is still pregnant, then find someone willing to do all your chores for a couple days, then transport her nearly 900 miles so we study the difference between heritage hogs raised on pasture and confinement hogs raised...well on confinement?"
We said "Sure"
So now getting closer to the date, Miss Sophie is getting a custom built sow carrier.
Yes, it will have walls and a roof |
She looks happy don't you think? She should be since she is the first one in her family for generations to be going to an institute of higher learning. We're very proud of her.
Hahahaha! My guess is she's smarter than some of the tenured professors there. (Having worked in higher ed, I know!)
ReplyDeleteWay to go Sophie! Your new "boots" will be the hit of the college coed scene. Safe journey.
ReplyDeleteShe WILL be coming home again, right?
ReplyDeleteIt is the best time to make a few plans for the future and it is time to be happy.
ReplyDeleteI have learn this publish and if I may just I wish to recommend you
some attention-grabbing things or suggestions. Maybe you can write next articles
relating to this article. I wish to learn even more issues about it!

She is adorable. Safe travels Sophie.
ReplyDeleteTraveling 900 miles with a pregnant sow? That is so difficult to comprehend. Can't wait to read your posts on this adventure!
ReplyDeleteShe looks very happy indeed!
ReplyDeleteAwesome hog!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe it...I had to pay to go to college when all I had to do was get pregnant with about 10 babies.
ReplyDeleteI presume that not only will she return with a degree, but also with a healthy bank balance!
ReplyDeleteYou go, Sophie! You're adorable as well as smart! Did you know that Sophie is Greek for "wisdom"? Very appropriate for a Pig of Higher Learning. It's a good thing Charlotte doesn't have to save Sophie because "Some pig" would just not do the trick. She'd have to spell something like "Erudite!"
