Dang! Sorry Oscar. I didn't get you anything for your birthday. I looked all over the Hallmark store and didn't find a single card that said, "Happy Birthday you Pig!" :laughing:
Here are a couple more pictures of Oscar from this evening when we all went for a walk. Sometimes he likes to follow us around, but rarely does he do this in the summer. I guess he had so much fun for his birthday, he decided to hang out with us a little bit longer!!!
Looks like Oscar has decided to stay inside the pasture. We've run a hot wire all around the inside of the fence and then added some temporary posts to cross the areas that the fence hasn't made it to yet. I think the problem I had at first was putting the temporary fence in an area that he would come up on without warning. Once he hit it, he just ran right through it in a panic. He did this a couple times.
I got the idea that if he saw the fence out in the open, he would be less likely to endure the pain of the electric shock. It's been almost a week now and he is still in there!!!!
He is also making friends with the goose. We don't know where it came from, but it's been there for a month now. Yesterday, it decided it would rather eat corn with Oscar, then eat floating catfish food with the duck.
