This is Elizabeth one of the breeding sows at Oak House Farm in Suffolk, and her piglets. The pigs are pedigree pigs of a breed known as Gloucestershire Old Spots. For the first six weeks, the piglets (baby pigs) are kept in the shed near the farm house, just in case there are any problems. Gloucestershire Old Spots make excellent mothers.
