I think 4 days should be long enough to know if its a success! There's only 2 of them so things should be settled fairly fast... hopefully it will go something like, Burnie rumblestruts and she gets annoyed. Burnie does some dominance thing then sniffs her bum and she sprays pee in his face. Burnie lies down sunmissivw. She licks his ears. They get married :)
Wow, if only life was that simple😄
 
Depending on what house style, I'm in a new ish build so looks better with no clutter, but cottages look lovely when they look lived in with loads of stuff around
 
We have artificial small gold willow tree, very stylish but that’s about it. Bungalow is just far too small to do full Christmas decor, oh and a couple of reindeer and moose for the fire place 😝

My friend bought me a mini-tree years ago, cats just knocked it over constantly so I gave up! I tend to visit people rather than them visiting me as I don't have kids and don't think piggies are too bothered so fine for me!
 
Can anyone tell me, at what point can i say yes il now house dot and burnie together? What am i waiting to see?
 
Ear licking, and settling down for a nap then waking up and remembering who else is there and being ok with it I think... like teenager hoomans :) if they wake up and see the other pig and want to take the first piggy shuttle bus home its probably not a love match! If they have a nap then wake up and see each other and have a hay breakfast together without fight or flight its probably ok...
 
If they are not taking chunks out of each other they are okay! Have you read the bonding guides, I read them several times before I start and keep them close by as things progress. I've done 3 bondings now using the guides (all boars!) easy peasy non events(no oven gloves needed), so I'm sure your two are going to be good. I won't wish you luck you don't need it! Xx
So exciting in your house tonight, not the decorations, it's far too early for those. I'm a 'oh do we have too' for those.
 
We are staying with family in East Sussex this Christmas so no cooking Christmas Dinner, what a relief! Done it for last 30 years🤔 Bill and Ted going too x
Hope you get a nice relaxing one this year then! And a road trip for piggies :)
I'm lucky, get to watch kids open presents, eat food other people have cooked and come home to tidyness!

@Skypipdot, my two took a little while a calm down but soon loved each other's company when got used to each other's ways! Crazy Jess was more the problem but she was very young (a few months) and excitable and he's always been more chilled (he was 10months).
They were inseparable after a few days and still are over 5yrs later! The only mini fall outs we have are on 'heat' days and that's her fault for wiggling her bum in his face then telling him off when he comes to see! She's a special one my Jess! :)

A few pics of Naughty Ped on thread from earlier :)
Sounds like a lovely xmas, sure Bill and Ted will be spoilt rotten too (like them and you should!) x
 
Many thanks, I’m looking forward to it, my 89 year old Mum is going to sons this year, so I will be as free as a bird!
Will look for Peds pics ❤️
 
Aw, just caught up on naughty little Pedro, he’s really healing well, it’s looking so healthy x So glad, wonder what you can tempt him with, don’t know what their favourite foods are?

Have a lovely time at Christmas, there nothing better than watching kids open their presents is there x
 
What a lovely feeling, all of my animals are out and active, dot is on a high, Burnie is munching away on red pepper, all my gerbils are out because its meal worm friday. They are fattening so i call it kind of a take away night for them. Its like they all know somethings happening
