4x8 split cage?

Many people have a lot of luck getting their boars to get along. You will first have to quarantine the new piggie in a seperate room for three weeks. Then you need to introduce them in a VERY neutral area.

If you want to make a 4x8 and split it in half with grids then that is okay too. I have seen people do that. I had to do that with my girls while one of them was pregnant!

I think that is a good idea because then they still have company, but they can't fight. I think I would try to quarantine them and then introduce them. Maybe they will get along!

Good luck!

OK so can I just separate them with the grids all the way down or do I have to put up a part of the coroplast to separate them.?

Just grids is fine as long as they are held in place well. Zip ties should work.

I had to make a divided cage for my 3 boars and zip ties and grids works fine. Two boys are in a 2x4 and the third is in a 2x3. Both have lofts. They like being able to see each other and communicate through the grids but they can't hurt each other any more. Try them together first though after quarantine.

Many many many people have a large herd of boars living together happily. It would be unfair to just assume that they wont.

Granted some pigs (male or female) will never get along, introducing them in a nuetral area always goes a long way. Plop a big salad in the middle, and watch. The first 30 minutes will be the worst, but after 3 weeks everything should be fine.

If it isnt, the next option is a buddy bath. Basically, you bath the 2 pigs together and "scare" them into becoming friends.

Firstly though, the new pig will need to go through a quarantine period. The pig needs to be in a different room, and the period needs to last for 3 weeks. This should insure that the new pig is not sick and then the introductions can begin. For info on this scroll down past the info on

I would definitely at least try introducing them as suggested above. I actually have 4 boys who get along and live together in the same 3x6 cage. Every once in a while there is a ruckus, but for the most part they do their own thing and live well together.

I also have 4 boys. I have a 3x8 and right now there is still a lot of chasing, nipping, nose-offs, butt sniffing, mounting and the like but so far nothing serious. They also have a 2x3 loft. I really think it helps that they have room to get away.
Yesterday I was watching and Harry was following Dodger around sniffing him and trying to mount him. Dodger was just trying to get away. Chopper heard the ruckus and went over and got in between Dodger and Harry to make Harry leave him alone. It was so funny.
