New Born Pup
Hi,
I sadly lost one of my piggies this week meaning that I have 1 sow living alone in her cage. She does live next door to a bonded sow and neutered boar pair, and she talks to them through the bars and has lots of interactions with them.
I am not in a rush to do anything- they all seem happy and we are recovering from losing our much loved pig.
I was hoping people could share their views on bonding my single sow with this bonded pair. I know trios can be tricky, but can this combination be successful?
Would it be better to bond the sows and the re-introduce the boar or would that be too confusing?
At the moment, I am swapping bedding and feeding them together through the bars. Is there anything else I could be doing to prepare for bonding if I choose to go ahead?
Thank you in advance!
