Zippy Little Piggy

"Remember, Izzy, this time you can only get one, not three."
In mid-March, we needed a boar to breed with Regina. We ended up going back to the same breeder that we got the girls from, who happened to be the 4-H leader. we walked in and greeted everyone in the club. Soon i got to see the three boars, each almost as tiny as Rapunzel was. There were two with red eyes and one beautiful silver.
Robin Hood, full grown
I ended up buying one of the red eyed ones, who I named Robin Hood, who was Regina's boyfriend in Once Upon A Time. He is an American Broken Lilac/Beige, but he is shown in Any Other Marked (AOM) because of the red eyes. He was very zippy when I got him, however, and when I opened the cage, he ran right to the front and jumped out. Thankfully, he got calmer as he got older and now he is just as gentle as the other cavies. He is the daddy of the baby sow aforementioned here.
