Boar Stink!

[Katiedid]

Just cut Herbert’s nails (yep renamed him) and he boar stank on my hand!

 

[Merab]

Ungrateful piggy.
He is gorgeous though

 

[Louise's Zoo]

Boys are so gross!

 

[Claire W]

My stinky boy pumped on my lap earlier today

 

[PigglePuggle]

But he's so handsome! I'd forgive a bit of boy stink from such a gorgeous piggy
Since we got Theo I prefer his stinky boy ways to the girls stroppy hormonal tantrums I think (they are currently chasing each other and pulling each other's ears because Puggle is in season)

 

[Qualcast&Flymo]

Sounds like I've a lot to look forward to!

Jet and Dozy were faaarrrr to polite to do this

Don’t be fooled. Neutered boars can be just as grim as intact boars so don’t think you’ve been saved by having him neutered

 

[Qualcast&Flymo]

Quite the opposite! I'm anticipating that being with females will bring out the boarly worst in him - testosterone laden pee everywhere especially when his wifelet(s) is/are in season and all the rest of it He's not exactly had anything to compete with up to now so stink has been minimal!

 

[Katiedid]

Herbert is neutered as were Jet and Dozy all did boar stink.

I do love my smooshy boys though. Zigg just peed all over Willow! Boys don’t do that.

Ha ha, my Edward had such a sweet and innocent face when I brought him home
but it didn’t take him long to wraft his boarly scent all over the place. He had only been with his girls for a night and I found his boar glue all over the fleece pads

Before Edward, I had Enoch. I gave him a cuddly soft toy rat the night before I introduced him to the girls. Needless to say it was pretty grim afterwards.

I always assumed that neutered boars were clean until I had one

 

[Flutterby]

Ahh lovely boar stink! I wouldn't be without it!

All I'm imagining right now is a guinea pig wafting around a cloud of stink like a skunk. Do they puff out bad smells like a skunk?! I'm so confused!

 

[Merab]

Love this thread - it brings a smile to my face.

That’s not far off.... he basically scent marked my hand with his butt and the stench was like some gas cloud...

 

[Siikibam]

I found the remnants of their marking once on fleece. Didn’t know what it was so I rubbed some onto a glove to smell it. I almost fainted/ it was so hideous one of my boys is a little stinky and needs a clean next weekend.

Ralph decided to scent mark me today. Delightful (not). Then he scent marked the kitchen where they were free roaming. Lovely (not). Domestic cleaning then had to follow cage cleaning!

Well that was nice of him

Yes, yes they do

 

[Sara’s Piggies]

I love my boys but they can definitely be gross sometimes. This morning I had to cut boar glue out of Ezra’s fur

 

[VickiA]

Yes, yes they do

Oh yes. In a house that was previously full of sows we suddenly had complaints from the family of bad smells and berating me for getting behind on the cleaning.... it turned out to be young Ralph marking his territory. It calms down once they settle, but at excitable times (introductions or changes usually) they summon up their best Male boar stink and share it liberally.

 

[Qualcast&Flymo]

Such generosity! I'd better be prepared in 6 weeks. Forewarned is forearmed! Squeaks will be a changed boy when his sow(s) arrive.

 

[Betsy]

About 6 weeks ago Dennis scent marked my hand which was very stinky of him but I felt happy as he obviously now considers me to be an honorary guinea pig!

 

[Siikibam]

I think I’ve been lucky so far on the boar glue side of things. Hmmm maybe I shouldn’t jinx it just yet

Or he has decided that you are now his possession....

Well yes there is that side to it I suppose .......

 

[sport_billy]

Adorable! He is the most stunning colour!

I have a thing for boys that colour but erm you may not get your butt shot as he is a little embarrsed by his ginger balls (or where they would be had the plum fairy not visited)
