Piggies sure are smart

Yesterday morning started out normal, Stella woke me up at 8 am, I walked upstairs to get her and change her diaper.  I always look out the bedroom window when I get up there.  From the guest room I can see every animals house.  Unable to believe my eyes!!  The gate to the pig pen was on the ground!!!  Prosciutto and Capicola are in the lower field with the llamas, the dogs are on top of the situation, watching the pigs every move.  The dogs are not herders, just guardians.
I slap a fresh diaper on Stella and rush down the stairs with her in my arms.  After throwing a coat on and grabbing Stellas juice from the fridge, I buckled her into the car, grabbed the pig food and drove towards the pig pen.  The pigs see me and know it is breakfast time.  The fast little buggers run from the chicken house to their pen in what feels like 15 seconds.  Thanks to the bucket of veggie burritos, hamburgers, jerk chicken, and French fries, the pigs are safe and sound in their house again. 
They used their nose to lift the gate right off the screws!  Genius!!  We have fixed the gate and hope for no more problems like that.  I only worry because there are a few places where they could get out of the main fenceline.  Pigs become feral in 4 weeks...
