New Piglets

Three little piglets lost their mama. Perhaps only three/four weeks old, they're too young to survive on their own out in the wild. In fact, some of their littermates died before being rescued. But a kind hearted person managed to trap these three frightened and terribly skinny starving babies and passed them off to me. 

So here I go again. 

 
The white/black spotted one is the biggest and strongest of the group. He's a boy. 

The middle sized one is a girl. She's all grizzly haired and looks like a miniature old pig. A funny color. And her hair sticks out straight all over making her even more funny looking. 

The tiniest one, the black with the white belt, is extremely shy and frightened. I haven't been able to touch it yet, or even get a good look at it. Boy? Girl? I'm guessing it's a girl. 

Right now they are either eating or sleeping. They don't seem to have much energy for anything else. They need a few days to recover.
