    Well, why don't you see what he's doing while he squeals? My old, inheirited one would squeal whenever he peed, because he had stones (and it hurt). I don't think Oskar has that, because, well, it takes time to build up stones, and mine got it because he ate alfalfa alot when he was adult.

    Yeah, you'd have to describe it better.... my pigs squeal too (and definitely loud enough for me to hear it outside) but that's just their normal WHEEEEEEK, like when I rustle a lettuce bag

    Re: Scared about my pig's squeel....

    Yep, my herd makes wheeking loud enough that I have them do it for their "dad" on the phone. (My husband who has not met them yet). I always tell him "The pigs want to say Hi" and then I make the veggies are coming noise. All 6 start to wheek for him. Yes, they get veggies when I get off the phone too.

    It is loud enough to be startling if you are not expecting it...more so since they are relatively quiet most of the time.

    During floor time today I left the kale in the bag. I started scrunching it. They didn't wheek but they did start sniffing and wiggling their little lips.

    Re: Scared about my pig's squeel....

    Ya furby weeeks really loud when she hears the carrot bag, I have NO IDEA how she can always tell it apart from any other bags we take from teh fridge, and she cant see the bag cuz the fridge doors always open... Its amazing to watch really, you can crinkle anything but furby can tell the baby carrot bags appart. And she will week for a very long time untill she gets some of the orange stuff inside . She gets really loud if you don't get on to her soon, she just gets louder and louder, sorta like "wont you hurry up with those" its so funny!!!
