Reese & Rollo
New Born Pup
I have two male pigs, who live in a 2x4 C&C cage, I adopted them as a bonded pair from the humane society. I believe they are brothers, so I'm assuming they have been together their entire lives(they're about a year).
Recently, they have been fighting more and more often, they don't hurt each other, but I'm afraid it might come to that. My dominate boy(Rollo), will chase the other(Reeses) around the cage, and Reeses hates it, he chatters, his fur puffs out and he tries to hide, but Rollo always hunt him down. It lasts a few minutes, before they go their separate ways.
I have a female pig, who's normal housed above them, I've moved her away, and still they fight. My biggest fear is that they hurt each other and I'll have to separate them. I don't have enough room to make them each a bigger cage, so they'd be stuck in 2X2 cages.
Any ideas on what I should do? I'm at a loss at this point.
