I have a lonely boar. He was in a trio all brothers. We lost one earlier this year. Unfortunately we lost his remaining brother a week ago.
I would like to get another boar to join him so I have some questions.
How easy is it to bond a new pig?
I have bonded many bunnies but never piggies.
I was thinking living along side each other to get used to smells and sounds then neutral ground to actually meet and take from there.
They would then live in existing piggies hutch and I would deep clean the hutch before putting both in.
Am I on the right track?
We have yet to get new pig but I am thinking pig of similar age rather than baby. Or is a baby easier to bond?
Existing pig is 4 years old.
