When Mr. Darcy and Landon shared a cage together, they were fine. The girls shared a cage right above them and it didn't bother them any-- they knew they were there and still got along fine.

But then I moved them into a C&C cage. I built one giant cage and just put a line of cubes down the middle to separate the girls from the boys, that way they could socialize with each other and be happy.

Only it didn't quite turn out that way. All Landon did was chew and shake the bars, and he started to pick on Mr. Darcy bad. Chasing him around and the like.

All the chasing was really starting wear me down, as they're in my room and it would keep me awake at night. So I put some coroplast against the cubes in the middle to block the boy's view of the girls; it worked, Landon wasn't chasing Mr. Darcy any more.

But then a week later it started up again, and now I just don't know what to do. I don't want to have to move any of them, but it seems neverending!

They're not fighting at all. Landon doesn't chatter or rumblestrut or any of those other things, he only chases. Poor Mr. Darcy has gotten to where he carries his pigloo around with him everywhere!

I'm at a loss. Is there any way to get this to stop without removing any of the pigs?
 
I'm sorry to laugh as it sounds a real pain for you but I love the idea of Mr Darcy carrying his igloo around with him... poor little piggie just wants some peace and quiet from the neighbours.

LOL! I don't know how, but I managed to not read that line the first time around! It is funny, sorry to laugh :(|)

(: He is a trip. He'll carry it right on over to the food bowl and lift it up so he can get his head in the bowl.
 
Hmmm not that long, but maybe they all come into season one after each other? I'm not really sure. I was told that you shouldnt have boys where they can see the girls so I was advised to put a correx barrier up when I questioned it, which you have already tried. I've not kept piggies for long, I'm sure someone will come along that can offer a bit of good advice :)
 
Well thanks for your help. (: Hopefully the girls are simply in season right now and that's why it's gotten much worse these past few days.
 
Maybe he's just sexually frustrated that he can't have his way with the girls and is taking it out on Mr Darcy?
 
Okay, the chasing seems to have died down considerably. I'll hear the occasional scruffle but it's nothing near as bad as before. Perhaps the girls were simply in season. Whatever the reason was, I'm glad it's stopped. (: And hopefully it won't pick back up any time soon.-c
