We've only had our little piggies for a week. Initially they were in a ferplast 100 cage (which was far too small - we quickly realised) and on Saturday we moved them to a c&c cage (2x4).
One of the gps (Sherbet) has always rumbled, walking slowly and wiggling his hips. The other gp (Jeff) has started to chase Sherbet around the cage and it looks like he's being a bit of a bully! There's no teeth chattering (that I have heard) but Jeff did catch a mouthful of the Sherbet's fur earlier. Both are delightful when out and being held / cuddled by me and DC, although Jeff is more inquisitive and will nudge our hands more. Both will come to eat from our hands with a bit of patience and perseverance.
Is this going to cause problems or are they still trying to figure out the boss pig? At other times they are happy munching hay together and will snuggle in one hidey (even though there are two). Just want to get it right for them.
