A new level of slavery 😉

So this is a good kind of “problem”, but why does one of my boys want me to hold veggies for him while he’s eating? He used to take the whole thing, now he wants me to hold it while he takes mini bites. And if I just hand it to him, he is all surprised that it ends in the floor . Should I take it as a compliment or what does this mean ? View attachment 176373

I'd take that as a compliment! He is comfortable enough with you to eat straight out of your hand instead of running off to eat in a hidey

That’s fantastic because he was the one that was the most afraid. We only had our two boys since end of February and the first two months were devoted to the ringworm torture. So great to hear this!

If a piggy seems to be dropping food out their mouth it's worth getting their teeth checked / keeping an eye on weight. My first dental pig, started wanting to be hand fed like that. I missed the signs.

Oh no . Thanks for telling this, I’ll keep an eye on him. So far his weight seem to be good and he is growing and bulking (he was a baby when we got him).

well put! I’m a sucker and I might or might not give too many snacks just because I have hard times not bringing fresh veggies when they squeak .I’m really trying though, when it’s really too much I start digging their hay for the good parts (whatever that is ha ha). We just love them so much.

Thank you . We love them, they are amazing and everything we could have hoped for. I had guinea pigs when I was a little girl and I really wanted the same experience for my daughter. I’m glad I finally convinced my husband .

Gorgeous boy.

Sounds about right. Once they train us we will do anything for them!

@Wiebke this is after the ringworm battle that you helped us win. Now we are all happy and healthy. Thank you again!

 

[Zanzan]

No wonder he expects you to feed him, he looks like a Prince!

 

[alpacasqueak]

What a stunning boy!
So glad you got rid of the nasty ringworm!
