The pig house's are probably one of the best things I've ever seen. There's so much work in it.

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

Oh wow thanks so much Elaine ❤️❤️

[@Jennifer62389]

The nicest, most creative pig houses I've ever seen, not that I've seen many. But I'm sure I'm right.

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

So kind of you Jennifer ❤️

Aww thanks Cathy ❤️❤️

[@solarlifeportugal657]

They look absolutely awesome guys, and just so you! Just so lovely that you built the pig palaces from scratch and so much of it was provided by the land. They will be some very lucky, spoilt and very cute piglets.

I love the creative little bits and bobs, like the "pots" made out of old cardboard. Wonderful how everything can be repurposed. The pig house is getting really awesome and the painting looks great, Luke! What awesome progress overall. Keep going and growing and being amazing you guys 💕🙌

Love what you and Luke have done making those pig houses. They are darling. Can't wait until the babies are in there with their mama's. Sarah you and Luke have got the most creative minds. Did not know you could use marigolds as a dye. Great idea. Take care and will see you next week.

It was really wonderful and I'm so happy for you guys. Hope these next weeks go well and the girls have easy birthings. Good that you have Cindy as a piggie midwife. Take care!! 🥰♥️🤗

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

[@marysutherland8570]

The piggy shelters are ADORABLE!!! I was trying to see if you put any little openings in the back though for access and for ventilation. Having lived many years in Iowa and having some pigs ourselves, I know that ventilation is an issue, especially if they ever use their houses for a "toilet". Also, i dont know your birthing plan, but mama pigs are notorious for laying on, and sadly, suffocating some of their babies. Perhaps you have plans for a larger place for your actual nursery where you can actually get in there and help them. That would be a safer plan, at least for the first few weeks! Can't wait to see all the little piglets! We'll have to try Marigolds petals! They would look beautiful in a salad!

[@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife]

Kunekune pigs or at least ours are very clean and never poo or pee inside in fact when Peppa was fighting for her life , she was so poorly and still she never once did inside and walked out to do her business every time . I dont think ventilation will be a problem but like everything else only time will tell if we are wrong😁

[@marysutherland8570]

@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife How nice they are so clean! Special piggies indeed! They are adorable, and obviously they are very happy there! As are the chickens and Molly! Thanks again for sharing with us! Love from WallaWalla, Washington!

Pigs are just so bloomin' glorious! Surely nature/gods/evolution made them the happiest, most intelligent and wonderful creatures? If I was religious (I most definitely am not) I would like to come back as a pig on a good farm like yours. I would come back as either a spacefaring,athletic and handsome pirate fighting baddies and saving several billion people people on many planets, or a pig ... tough call. I'm not sure which is happiest (Slight difference)
