Re: Should I let her go????

I have one big that still acts like I'm going to eat her every time I hold her. Nothing seems to help so I finally just accepted that she's doing what her insticts tell her. She's a prey animal and is supposed to be wary of giants that pull her out of her home. The main thing I do is make her come out anyway but act calmer with her. I also pet her gently and try not to look at her for too long at a time. I don't think rehoming or getting another pig will really help. I tried bringing my bravest pig out with my scaredy pig and she just feeds off of the scared pigs energy and acts scared herself. I know it seems like you've had your pig for a long time but she may just need extra time to come around now that she doesn't have her friend. I would give her a few more months.
