This one isn't for food.
Well, eventually, it'll be food..
We're going to turn it into a baby piggy maker She can eat our extra food that's laying around (right now, tons of apples all over the place; more than our other animals can keep up with) and table scraps and all of her pig food.

Rule 1: don't name your food.

If it was a male, it would have to be Hamilton. Female? Mrs. Hamilton?

I named my rooster Stu because if he doesn't keep attacking me, he's going to go in a stew.

Agreed. Why would you name something that will eventually be dinner, doesn't make sense to me. *sad* I couldn't do it.

Because pigs are smart enough to respond to their name... I didn't want to spend the next year saying "hey, you! Come here"

I don't name the majority of our animals... only 2 of the rabbits have names - they came from my niece. Approximately 40-50 chickens; only 1 has a name (one of the roosters) - Charlie. But, the goats, miniature llama, alpaca, peacocks, and turkeys have names.

Names of the turkeys: Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, . . .

The wife has handed down the decision...
Personally, I kinda liked "Kevin" - but wondered if I'd ever get tired of this conversation:
"Why did you name a female pig, 'Kevin'?"
"Kevin Bacon, get it? huh huh huh huh"
" :rolleyes; "

So, I didn't lobby too hard. "Ophelia" won. I was hoping someone here would have come up with a better name; oh well.
