Ok so, because the Bonkey Pigs are complete pains they currently live side by side. Always able to nose touch through a grid if the fancy takes them.
Because of winter temps and Christmas I have realised I may need to have a shift around.
While I would love to keep then as they are actually would love them back together, which would sort all my problems..but its.nite looking to likely but would it be ok to have them in the same room but not side by side?? Does anyone do this with happy pigs?
My plan (if by chance it may work) is to make another cage out of C&C grids and have Big Pig in one, Little Pig in the other.
But to do this they would have to lose their permanent day pen. They would both have a full cage rather than half that they have at the.moment for nights. I could easily set up a temp.pen everyday and side by sidea them for a few hours in the daytime and they would still get their romp round the living room.in the evening.
Problems with this plan is that they would either have to be one on top of the other (guinea apartments) or at opposite ends of the room.
Not sure about on top, mainly for the look. Dh already has a complex that pigs are taking over. It would be a 'wow what's that!' as soon s you walk into the room....but then if they can't see each other would they be sad ??
Im bit stuck. Didn't think if any of this when they were bought and tbh i expected them to be together!
Any thoughts?
