bullying or is it boys being boys

baz is on the big side and freddie is slimmer but baz has always got his head in the food bowl. and if freddie goes near it he turns and nips him or goes in front of him and rumbles i have notice if baz sees freddie heading for the bowl he manages to get there first and keeps freddie away. i always give big bowl of fresh veg in morning and has soon as its on the floor baz is taking every thing out of bowl for himself . instead of one piggie on each side baz will walk round in front of freddie so fred starts having bits that baz has drop. should i try putting in two small bowls of food one each see how they go . they are 2

I would definitely try giving them two bowls. You could also try scattering their veg round the pen

They should have two bowls and yes scatter the veg around the cage.

Even girl pigs do this! They're so greedy rolleyes I'd give them two bowls like the other people said.

My girls argue over the water bottles. The water could be there all day and they don't want it, but once one of them starts drinking it, then they suddenly all want it! They push each other out the way and act like they're going to nip each other but don't actually do it rolleyes
