Ughh who'd have boars?
Artie, very silly little pig, thought it'd be a VERY good idea to pinch nuggets from Harveys food bowl when Harvey was munching away in the filled hay tray (they have three nugget bowls, red- Arties, China bowl- Harveys, the dog bowl- shared) now as I was bending down to put hay in their trays yesterday I noticed Harvey suddenly leap up and conked little Artie with his front two teeth on Arties nose (which was sniffing the tasty nuggets). Next minute there was a big gush of blood and a poor slave running around trying to mop it up. rolleyes
Anywhoos after dabbing his poor nose clean, (he now has a little hole) I popped him back in the shed, to which he ran up in his cosy cup and Harvey joined in to snuggle him and lick his poorly nose. For two boars who are joined to the hip they have a rather love hate relationship!
So lesson to be learnt: Never pinch food from somepig elses plate!
Oh and Arties nose, it was a bit dried bloody today but i've mopped him back up and will be keeping a close eye on it.
Does anyone else have pigs with particular eating habits or spaces?
