boar

Sorry I hope it's just nothing... I mean everything seems fine. Steve is eating,drinking,squeaking,popcorning- I actually just had them on the lawn for about 20/30 minutes and yep fine. However on taking their tube back upstairs (Mo did not enter it at all because I was watching them so it's...

Didn't really know what to title the thread seeing as it's just me sharing some of my favourite pictures of the boys. But most of the pictures are from their instagram account so yeah that's why it's titled 'mo_steve_delightful.duo' for those wondering :lol!: Anyway seeing as we all love a good...

Thought I'd give another update on my two boys- and once again thank you all for my help. It's apparent now that Steve is going through his hormone stage but no fall out has happened. Occasionally Steve mounts Mo but he doesn't seem too bothered. They've started popcorning together and almost...

I've just been bonding my 1 year old male with a 4 week old male. I've done it before with another pair and it's been a successful bond! In my previous one it all seemed to settle much sooner than the one I'm doing it at the minute. It has all calmed down from the intial meeting, my older male...

Hey everyone! My new-ish boar, Gus, is four months old. I was just wondering if he is pretty big for his size. I saw a sow from my city at the state fair that was a dalmation too. She was probably from the same local breeder. (FYI, I am not a fan of breeders. I am hopefully going to adopt...

So Mo's teeth are fine! Front ones are perfectly straight and growing at even rates- which is a huge relief because Mo did at one point loose one of his top teeth (well most of it there was a mini stump left). Anyway the only fear I have is occasionally -like just now- he'll get a strand of hay...

Well my Mo has always loved having a tube to run through and chewing on cardboard. So he nearly always has a toilet tube to chew on (and toss about) aswell as one of those cardboard tubes from pets at home. It's his favourite (those of you who follow his Instagram have probably seen the tube...

Sorry for the graphic image... But we have a problem here! Has anyone ever seen anything like this? What could be wrong with him? This is my little guy Chester. He's just a few months old. Anyway, I have 3 other male pigs and have never had anything like this happen. I thought it may be boar...

(Update from my old thread 1 to 2) Mo and Steve have been together just over two weeks now and I'm happy to say they still seem okay together. There is the rare occasion where Mo will mount him quite a bit but that is extremely rare now and I usually wake up with Steve wheeking over nothing-...

Hi All, I made a post on pet forums about this and was advised to ask around here to help shed some light on my piggie's situation. I have a boar called Theo who was bleeding when he urinated. I took him to the vets who said he had a penis infection and said that I should give him baytril and...

Right I've finally done it! Mo has a friend which he is currently getting acquainted to. (Mo has never looked soooo huge!) Okay so he seemed a little shocked at first and a bit jumpy. Then I got a little worried cos he kept nibbling the little ones fur and ears - one of which he caught and...

So hi guys it's me again (Mo's mummy). I just wanted to say to those who saw my thread on his 'squeaking while peeing'I haven't heard him since the last time he did it but he does still do calcium deposits. Would love you guys to drop the best and healthiest brand of pellets I could try that...

Hi everyone I haven't posted in a while! Ive noticed this evening that one of my boars has a rather red and sore looking nipple! I am working on taking some photos and trying to gently feel around the area to work out if it is tender or not but alas i need another pair of hands! (other half is...

Hello Community, I have recently noticed my 10 month old Boar's poop change drastically. They used to be quite large and thin (Banana shaped as people normally say) and I've noticed recently they've gone much thicker and a slight curve in it I guess. I've tried searching on it but nothing seems...

So hi guys it seems for every good post I make something goes wrong! So I moved Mo into his cage yesterday and he's all excited and happy. Pooing fine and urinating fine. All night aswell (I went to sleep at 12 pm) and I'm a light sleeper with him next to my bed. The bad stuff starts the...

@sport_billy I thought you might like this... and I had to share the other photo cos it made me laugh so hard! I was trying to take a picture of him sleeping to show my auntie how much he was loving his new cage and he does that! Lol

I recently adopted a guinea pig and noticed that he was itching the same spots quite regularly. I have been checking for any hair loss and I can't see anything around the areas but he doesn't like me touching the area that he is scratching on his side. When I have felt it, I can't feel anything...

As some of you may know my Mo has an active grease gland which I keep on top of along with his man bits and bobs. However sometimes he will skid his bum and this 'stuff' will come out on the fleece. It does smell and has fur in it which I'm guessing is what has come off him and got caught when...

Hope no one thinks I'm selling - realise the title is a bit misleading but just had a call from my nan who has become the owner of a guinea pig cage for free! Not sure how big it is yet though I've been told it's bigger then the one Mo is in at present - waiting on pictures. I hope it's...

Hi, New to the forum and wondering if anyone could give a bit of advice. We got ours two boys from a rescue place on Sunday. Both are around 2 years old and have been together a long time. Everything's been fine for the most part, they're really happy to be handled, etc. However, we noticed...
