Needed another pig hut for next sow to farrow in,
so this morning my boyfriend arrived with all the raw materials and by lunch time had a lovely new pig hut

(yet to be painted)

Front step is to stop straw from coming out, back ventilation (in a heart shape) and handles front and back so ark can be picked up and moved, back is lower than front so rather than rain running down sides of ark, the grooves are so the rain runs down the back.

Ark is rather heavy and solid but my boyfriend and dad can pick it up and move it just fine

Happy piggy customer

Brilliant work! Love the heart in it too
Sadly my husband is a very good accountant so no such creations over our way

Pig looks happy as a pig in...

...sure you must get 'creative' accountants Warescot.....

Lovely pig ark Ladygrey, very well thought out and I can see piggy appreciates the loveheart - we inherited a few lovehearts around our place when we came - there is a garden toilet with a loveheart cut in the door about eye level - it has a wooden heart sculpted into it on a hinge so you can open it like a wee flap to see who's next in the queue.

Like your helpful little poopee too - kennel next or will he be snuggling down with piggy?

Oh wow! What a great pig ark.

How lucky to have such skillful boyfriend. Hope you gave him lots of

Looks very nice indeed. I could be wrong but the roof looks like onduline if that is right I would have worries about length of life (of the roof) and or the boy friend?
