He is friendly enough but when I hold him he keeps nipping at my clothes and skin... not hard enough to cut, is he just tasting/testing everthing? will it stop? hes approx 8w old
 
my piggies did this - they still do it now a little, and they lick like craqzy

its nothing to worry about, its just them being enquisitive,
 
my ruby constantly did this when she was little, now she doesnt do it at all! but she's 9months old now, i cant remember when it stopped
 
Thanks thats a relief. My bigger two dont bite atall. They are adults though and I got them as adults

*Sigh* toddler hood is hard! Think I prefer adults :))

aw no! i love piggies when they are little! they are such fun! acrobatting and jumping and flying across the room - quite literally! enjoy it!
 
they're so lovely at all ages, I dont miss my piggies as babies, you just dont seem to notice them growing up, then all of a sudden, you see it and they're all of a sudden nearly fully grown and you wonder where they time went. its a priverlidge seeing them grow, makes you so proud

That seems to be the way with human babies too! one minute they were milky smelling poop machines and now they are off at school! scary how fast it goes (I have human babies btw :)) boy age 6 and girl age 4)

aww! i would imagin its just the same x
 
From my experience it is just a baby type of thing. They grow out of it.

Junior nips from time to time but sometimes it is because he gets so excited. He loves to nibble the zip on my jacket and occasionally it is my fingers also!

Little tinker! rolleyes:))
 
Both my piggies do it. I think it's a warning sign meaning "Don't drop me will you." lol or something. Or if i kiss Cookie and to tell me she doesn't like it she nips my arm or clothes but not enough to like cut.
Cookie licks my mum alot lol. i dunno why.
 
I had two little boys a while ago that used to nip.i think they had a blurred line of me being a human or food.they used to trest me like an annoyance and nip me as they would each other.they were homed together and dont bite the new owners so who knows !
 
i've had my kiddo 3 months and I still have nipping but not as bad as when i first got him! He will sit and LICK my face for hours, which is incredibly sweet but annoying after a while :P
