I have a 2 X 6 lower level as I know the 2x2 and 1 x 2 upper levels don't count. I did clean everything and put all new hidey houses in. I think Darwin has worn herself out because now she will chase her and then fall asleep for a while and do it all over again. She is letting her eat so I...

OK so I am sorry for posting so many questions today. I have not been active in quite a while. My new 4 week old pig was introduced to my 2 females and neutered male today due to her not eating and while she is happy now my dominate female pig is not taking to the idea of adding a 4th to their...

Yeah we did it! Left- Darwin(female), Center Chewy Pooh (Male/N) right Piggles!

Great News!!!

What the verdict? Hope everything is OK.

We have a problem with spiders in out house since it is cold out and they seem to like to the hay. We have contacted KM Hayloft and put the NEW hay in a Rubbermaid container and we are hoping this keeps them out of the hay. I heard that you can use lavender essential oil mixed with water to...

I just added a new boy a couple weeks ago and have 2 females currently. He was quarantined at the rescue and his cage is in teh same room as the two females so obviously they know each other exist. I tried to have him neutered Friday and he vomited during anesthesia induction so he will be...

Here are his future cage mates when he is fixed! Darwin(black and white) Piggles (Brown, Tan and White)

I got a new pig last week. He is 4 months old and will be neutered Friday. The vet needs a name so I am turning to you all for help. I came up with Rodney but no one else liked it. My other two are Darwin and Piggles and both female. Here is the new guy.

I have 1 cat, 2 dogs and 3 pigs and am in Med school full time. I have had at least 3 dogs the entire time I was in undergrad and live alone. I don't think of any of this as work and I am sooo happy when I come home and am greeted by my dogs, then cat and then all 3 pigs yelling for treats...

He was quarantined at the rescue and it is my understanding that there is no quarantine with a reputable rescue that has had them for more then 3 weeks. Also apartment is only one room and a bathroom which won't fit a C and C cage big enough for him.

I have 2 females that are bonded and are 10 months and 5 years. I just got male pig and he is a 4 month old male that will be neutered soon. Is there any value in doing any type of introductions through cages to see if they get along before getting him neutered? I know you can't put them in...

He is amazing! I love the coloring! Thanks for sharing I love looking at other people pigs, they are all so different.

Hahah Yeah well she doesn't mind or at least she doesn't move away. I think it is hard to watch but only have 2 female pigs and separation is not an option. She is an adolescent pig as far as I can tell as she is getting bigger since we have had her in the last 4 months. Maybe this will die...

OK I posted about 3 months ago that one of my pigs was barbarring the other. This is continuing to go on and she has 2 bald spots the size of a quarter. Will this stop and is this normal. She only does it when they are out in floor time and she just sit there and eats the other ones fur. I...

You pigs are sooo cute. Your all brown pig looks like my past pig snickers and you tri colored one looks like his lifetime wife Blue. I also have a Darwin she is a female american black and white.

Does anyone have experience with pigs being able to use pigloos after a period of time or should I just give up on the pigloo idea? Or, Is this ok and harder on me then the pigs as there is no blood.

I have 5 pigloos 2 giant ones and 3 regular ones. It is not for a lack of hideys Darwin just likes piggles out of whatever she is doing to make her presence known.

My pigs have been housed together for about 2 months give or take. As soon as I think they are finally done with their dominance issues of one entering a pigloo while the shy one is in there and barbarring (sp?) her and the shy one screaming (not in pain and no blood) it happens again and I...

Aww that sounds soooo sweet! I had a shy pig and she started screaming for the other new pig across the room before they were introduced. I hope it works out well for well. Our introductions were very stressful on me and my shy pig but now they enjoy each other company a lot even if they...
