Ok. I need some advice on how to handle this right now. Bailey seems to be a happy pig. She eats (LOVES her veggies) and drinks, runs around wheeking, while hates being picked up, seems to enjoy cuddles (loves to sit in my daughter's hood of her sweatshirt).
We have a "playpen" for her in our main living space (regular cage is in daughters room). She spends a lot of time in there as well as having time to free roam. Lately though she is trying to shove her nose through the playpen bars and/or chewing on them (she never does this in her cage). She has lots of hay, toys, room to run. How can I discourage her from chewing on the bars or shoving her nose through? I'm worried about her hurting herself.
I know she needs a friend, and we are looking into that, but unfortunately we are on a state of emergency, lock down/stay at home order at the moment and we cannot get her a friend right now, until at least the end of the month.
