We took the boys on a tour of 4 farms on Saturday afternoon. There were 20 local farms open to the public from 12:30 - 5:30. We were only able to make it to 4 of them. David and Ryan got to feed pigs at 3 of farms. By the time we got to the 3rd farm David was a pro at filling the cup up with corn and giving it to the pigs.

The last farm we went to had a little of adorable baby pigs. David stood and watched them for a long time. They ran all over their pen with the little amish boy. David loved watching the little boy in the pen. I think he really wanted to jump in too.

The pigs at this farm were enormous. After David threw the food to them the pigs went nuts - they were so loud. David jumped up into Paul's arms and put his hands over his ears and said "Too Loud!".

The pigs were all at least 300 pounds. The daddy pig on the right was over 500 pounds! They all stayed behind the electric rope. None of them came close to it. It was a little nervy to be standing to close while they went nuts over the food.

Ryan was at ease with the chickens. He got down to check them out.
