Today Petunia has just been squealing away! Not sure what it means though? She just starts squealing randomly and running around her cage. Is she excited or scared or what?
 
I believe she is wheeking. (I had to look up videos on youtube because the links won't work on my computer). It kind of scared me because I did not know what it was lol!
 
Was this her first time making this noise? If it was wheeking she wants your attention/food. Mine Wheek when they see or hear me, or when I rustle a plastic bag because that means VEGGIES!!!! lol if she was squealing she was probably scared or in pain. I hope she was wheeking! :)
 
Now she makes that noise all the time! I think she knows I will give her a carrot or something if she starts wheeking lol. I looked up a video and thats what it sounds like.
 
I have 4 pigs now (3 babies) and when they get wheeking, boy is it loud! So I feel obligated to give them a carrot or treat :) But when I got my first pig I had her for about a month till she finally Wheeked for the first time! It was the best thing ever! Once she starts associating food with certain sounds that preceded the food, she will wheek all the time. :)
