Wow, it's so cute to see them all like that! I'm sorry that i have no clue how to give that many piggies attention, though you might want to just make lap it shorter and just fool around with them while their in the cage more? I'm no expert, but my girls love it when i play with them while their in their cage.

To be perfectly honest, with that many, I would forgo laptime. That's really more for the human than the pig anyway. You might want to set up a bigger grid playpen for the boys and girls seperately to have more floor playtime and visit.

I have seven pigs and try to hold them two at a time to make sure they all get in lots of cuddles and time.

The only other advice I have for you is to pace yourself!!! :)

aww such cuties! I know how it feels when you have some many pigs and only two hands. It's overwhelming. Have all the males met yet? If so maybe you could spend about an hour with the males and then another hour with all the females?

To be honest, i think you're in for a very busy few days! But if you gotta be busy, there is no better way then to be busy with piggies. =)

I had to separate Stewie from the rest of the boys lasy night. He was nipping my little foxy and chattering away and it caused all of the piggies to squeak away. I couldnt go to sleep cause of it so ihad to separate for my well being. other then that though all the boys have always got along since i bring my guys to my moms house for play time alot.
