New Born Pup
Hi
I female pig I adopted had 3 babies - 2 girls and a boy. The boy is white with pink eyes and possibly blind. I’m not sure if he’s a lethal because he was the biggest pup and has grown fast and fed well.
He’s now 3 weeks old and I’ve removed him from mum - she and the two girls have joined my female/husboar herd.
I’ve temporarily put Egg (born on Easter Sunday!) with my bonded boat bros. They are 2.5 years old and quite laid back. There is a fair bit of rumbling but Egg is holding his own and they are all eating together. They have a big space in our bedroom around an old dresser - it has a 120x60 litter-hay box at the back and various sleeping places plus big run area (9 grids wide).
My question is: how long can I leave Egg with his ‘uncles’? The space is big so enough room for 3 of everything. Can they babysit for as while or should I avert disaster and remove now?
The only thing I can think to do with this lone boy would be to keep on his own in caged off area next to herd (there is a top level L shaped he could have one side of) or partition of part of older boys cage.
Appreciate any advice!
