  Not Ranked. Helpful AND tactful post? : 0
I am adopting three new girls this weekend from two different homes. The singleton girl is arriving tomorrow, and the two other girls are arriving on Sunday. Of course, all three girls will be in quarantine for three weeks. But I just feel so sorry for the singleton girl. She is approx. a year old, and has been all alone her entire life. I'm just wondering if all three new girls can have their quarantine together. I'm weighing the pros and cons in my head...but what are your thoughts?       |

It isn't quarantine if it's together. She's been alone this long, she can wait three more weeks. |

It would defeat the purpose of quarantine to put them all together. The single sow will not miss not having roomies if she's never been with another pig. |

That's what I figured....although the quarantine is as much for the sake of my four current girls as for the new girls  I just feel so terrible for the one pig......it's horrid that she's never had a proper friend. I'll just have to be sure to give her plenty of extra lap time Thanks for the advice, guy/girls! |
