Well, I got Pixel(now Pixie) yesterday. I put them together today since I had to break QT to see if they got along enough before I took her home.

They seem to be in a stale mate right now.ptimist:

Where did you get her? Why did you not quarentine?

I had to see if she got along with my girls. I didn't want her to try and kill them. I got her from someone that joined guinea lynx and couldn't keep her anymore.

Oh.

I love pics...

Well, as soon as I can. And as soon as someone comes over to show me how to put them up. She's so scared she runs away and hides.

She wouldn't kill them... You should have done quarantine. If this new pig were sick, your other pigs will be sick now too. If you follow the proper introduction process, after a THREE WEEK quarantine, then you should have been fine. If they fought with no avail, you could have done a buddy bath. If that didn't help and there was bloodshed, then you'd just have to keep them in separate cages. I don't understand why you had to possibly get your other girls sick just to see if they got along, it could have waited three weeks.

She stands a far better chance of killing them via illness than she ever did by fighting, and I'm not sure how you've managed to be around here as long as you have and post as much as you have without figuring that out, but I guess it's a little late now. Hope everyone turns out to be OK.

Well it was like she was being QT'd at someone else's house. She hasn't been around any other pig for over a month and she's perfectly healthy.

She was well taken care of.

I considered it carefully and it's worked out well.
