Pint sized porker

It's Drinky and Perky! A pint-sized piglet called Perky risks turning into a lager snout — as he tries to hog a beer all to himself.

The five-day-old porker, who weighs less than 2lbs and is just 9ins tall, is the tiniest pig ever born at Pennywell Farm in Buckfastleigh, Devon.

Director Nicky Murray, 40, said: “He’s the smallest and cutest we’ve ever had. The staff here can’t get enough of him.”

No-one likes a drunken oink, so we’re glad to report Perky didn’t turn into a boozy sow-and-so after pinching this pint from a worker.

That was probably because he put his trotter in the lager, rather than using his mouth.

Bless him — he’s obviously a little ham-fisted.
