bonding a boar

Hello! Recently, I lost my guinea pig, Muffin (4 yrs old). He was in a pair with my other pig, Cookie. Cookie is 2.5 yrs old, he's a thick pig at 1280 grams. He's a very dominant pig, therefore not getting on very well with others (biting, chasing etc). Now he's a single pig, we tried bonding...

Hi, I'm having issues with my two male boars. One is roughly 6yr while the other is 2yr, and I had to separate them in January due to the older boars health being bad. The problem I'm having now is I would like to reintroduce them, but everytime I try they rear up at one another and show signs...

I’ve been bonding a new male, Pumba with my existing pig, Pete. A long time ago I tried putting Pete in with my existing herd at the time. Pete got along well with two of my seniors, but my younger male, Chuck and him ended up having a fight while I had left them unattended (I left since...

Just to start, the boar I just adopted is Pumba (4 year old cuy mix) and my boar that needed a partner is Pete (3 1/2 shorthair). They are in a 30 sq ft enclosure with two large two-way hides and two pellet bowls (since they got territorial over them). I put Pumba and Pete into their enclosure...

HI, I INHERITED 2 BOARS.When I got them they were in a tiny cage. One was very ill with a large cut across his back. He'd scratched himself stupid or had a cut and then scratched.

Hi! :) I was just wondering whether anyone has any advice with bonding a neutered boar with a groups of sows? I’m going to be bringing a neutered boar home from a local rescue to see whether my current four sows, Pumpkin, Spice, Lottie and Flossie, are willing to accept him into their herd...
