Hello!
So I have had my first pig Milkshake for aprox 1 year. She is a 3-4 year old sow who has lived alone her whole life. Now that I am at a point where I am able to provide her with the space she needs I resuced another piggy, Merida, a 6 mon-1 year old sow. I have had the girls side by side for about a week or so getting them used to each other. We have had a couple meetings, all on neutral ground. For the most part they have gone ok, aside from a few scuffles. Nothing major, no blood. My biggiest concern is when will I know when they are ready to move in together permantly? I would really like to avoid any fights or issues!
