    Dominance Dominance behavior; Oldest pig and new pig

    I have my 2 older pigs in a Midwest cage and Jean in a 20x35 cage. I have been introducing them in a big playpen every day. I know Ygritte is also in heat so I'm sure that's not helping the situation �� but do you think that I should put her directly into the 2 older pigs cage...
