Junior Guinea Pig
Hi everyone!
Ive had my pigs almost 3 weeks now (2 young boars) and theyve swapped! They are both VERY skittish (dont think ever been handled). To start , M was the more friendly, sometimes.let me pet him etc and W wasnt having any.of.it. Now, W will let me pet him more (but not loads) but M runs away.,They are both VERY food driven... will climb in my.lap if i have food, but now M goes off once i stroke him but W might let me stroke.
Both will sniff me and my hands, handfeed but they are GREEDY lol.
M has always nibbled me, tonight i left my hand there to see what would happen and he drew blood but i think he thinks 'mummy = food so i will chomp harder' Is all this normal progress? or is it all going wrong? xx
