I'm Amanda, and I adopted two girls from a family owned pet store on Saturday. I want to name them Elsie and Edna, but my bf wants to name the black one. So far the all brown one is going to be called Edna.
They are both doing well for the short amount of time I've had them. Edna is the more social of the two. She doesn't run when I try to pet her or pick her up and she's eating from my hand, even out of her cage. Elsie(for now) is more shy and hides in the igloo most of the time. I try not to bother her when she is unless I need to tidy up the cage and change the towel I keep in there. When I do take them out of the cage they only complain during the actual picking up and calm down as soon as I get them close to me or on the bed.
I've noticed Elsie is a bit more pudgy than Edna. I know you've all heard this a million times, but I just have this nagging feeling that she may be pregnant. Then I start thinking what if the really big pig(almost twice as big) in the cage in the pet store might have been male... I'm a big what-if-er. Please tell me what you think about the picture below:
I did a lot of research before I got them so I know the risks of them giving birth and while babies are always exciting, I hope she's just a fat little piggy.
