He's home, he's adorable, I am totally, utterly and unconditionally in LOVE with him. The absolute sweetest baby ever. I'm so happy that I could burst.
There is no way that he's 4 weeks old though, probably closer to 3 but I love him anyway.
We got back from the breeder about an hour ago. Apollo had his first meal in his new house about 15 minutes ago. I am beyond relieved at how well it went, and how good he ate. I'm spoon feeding, because I'm too terrified to use the syringe method for fear of aspirating him accidentally.
He picked up on it right away, chewing the formula off of the spoon. His crop wasn't fully empty, so it was a great learning experience for me. He ate a bit, I got a feel for it and everything went smoothly.
Little piglet.
I love him already. I can't wait to watch him grow, and feather out and everything. I'm excited to see what color he turns out to be. My sister's vote is that he's grey, but I'm still holding out hope that he turns blue!
Here's Apollo, 3 weeks old after his first meal.
