Baby Pigs

[lilshortie]

I am pretty sure that my female is pregnet now because her nipples look bigger and like they are full of milk. If she is and she does have babys. When I seperat the males from the females is it ok to put them in the cage with my older male pig?

Yes, you can put the male babies with the male, and the female babies with the mom.

I've never noticed that they get bigger nipples when expecting... and there isn't any milk available till about 1 hour after the birth. Hmmm..

Enlarged nipples could be a sign of an ovarian cist. Is she moody and does she mount the other pigs?

 

[lilshortie]

She has her own cage. I don't think she is moody lately she has taken to nippling on your fingers if you put them near her mouth but other than that she seems ok.

actually, my girl's nipples got quite a bit bigger when she was expecting. The nipple itself didn't get bigger, but they got more pronounced and they kind of stuck out a lot more.

Yes they kind of stick out way more than usual
