Had different pairs of pigs out for floor time during cage cleaning, as usual.

Just had one my helpers discover a large quantity of blood on one of the newspapers in the corner. Also a bit clumpy. Just checked ALL the pigs that were out, NO SIGNS OF ANYTHING.

One female, Thumper´s girlfriend, don´t know if she may have been pregnant and aborted??????

Haven´t got a clue. I can sometimes track the culprit down by wiping a Kleenex on their genitals and seeing if there is any residue of blood showing up.

T, Wilma did that a few hours before she had Phoenix and the still born. But she was WAY pregnant.

Really seems like an early miscarriage, but Thumper´s girlfriend is the only unknown pig. She did come from SCVHS and she was a bit large; wasn´t sure if she was pregnant. I checked her thoroughly, no signs of blood at all. Although, I would imagine she would/could clean herself very well. I think she´s the only one it could have been. She seems okay now.
