At the advice of replies in a previous thread I made about my two boars being territorial, I expanded my 2x4 C&C cage with a 2x3 C&C cage. Is there anything else I can add to minimize arguments? I plan on adding an extra hide, an extra water bottle, and a second hay rack.

Do you know what the piggies are fighting over?

It looks like resources and space. Bigger pig hogs the hay, gets upset when smaller pig tries to take a nibble. Every time they see each other, they square off and rumblestrut. I’ve noticed that the bigger pig has claimed the 2x4 as his domain, and the smaller has claimed the 2x3.
 
Top pig always has first choice!

Best make sure that every pen has got one of each so they can have their separate territories but can still interact.
