Pam,
It may sound silly, but you might start call "pigs, pigs, pigs" when you feed them every day. and they might if you are lucky over time start to think the words mean food and come if they get out again. We uses to call the cows for food when I was a kid that way.
We lived on 20 acres in the country. One corner of our property butted up to the high school. A couple of time the cows found a whole in the fence and decided the football field had great grass. The only way to get them home was the call and randle the grain bucket.
Many of the stories you tell bring back memories of the great adventures of country life.
Thank you very much for taking the time to post!
