I used to have two male pigs but sadly one died when a husky got into his cage. The cage is now out of reach on a desk while my other boy has a fractured scapula and is recovering. I want to find a new cagemate for him but it's hard to find a single boar in my area except on kijiji. This made me think, do I NEED to get him a male? would getting a female be any different if I got him neutered? I have a 2x4 cage, which I guess is a little small for boars, and when there were two there was a lot of rumbling, chattering, and such. There was even an incident when I put them in a carrier and the one that's alive got violent (I have two carriers now). So, with the slightly smaller setup and me willing to neuter my male, could a female cagemate be a better option than a male?
