Question Swimming pool?

My little Babe seems to like "playing" in her water. She pokes at it until it makes a nice little puddle. Have you ever seen a piggie play in a little "swimming pool?"...would it be safe to put a little dish or bowl in with water once a day? - just wondering if anyone has had the experience that I have.

Re: Swimming pool?

Mine have never enjoyed the water, but I would like to request pigtures of her playing, it sounds so cute.

Re: Swimming pool?

I had to ditch the bowl and get a bottle. Mine loved playing in water. They would get it everywhere. They will still play with the bottle and see how much water they can spill out.

Re: Swimming pool?

Mine don't like that water either, well i don't think so. My pigs are more earthy, down to the ground sort of pigs.

Re: Swimming pool?

Unless you want to clean up a mess every day, it's not a good idea. Most pigs don't like swimming or playing in water.

Re: Swimming pool?

My pigs like to push the ball on the tip of the bottle in just to see how much water will spill out. If they get some in their mouth they will sometimes spit it out into their puddle. It makes such a mess. Those darn pigs...

Re: Swimming pool?

Mine also like the feel of water flowing down their little faces.
