Junior Guinea Pig
Has anyone else noticed that during the 48 hours before a full moon, their pigs have extra stroppy days?! My two are currently wrecking the joint in a strop that's lasted 2 straight days, resulted in many pee fights and apparently puts them grumpily on edge! I've noticed they seem to do this about once a month, and that it coincides with the full moon, so I was wondering if I happen to have the only two pigs doing this, or if it was a known thing?
It may just be their age, I think they're coming up on a year old now and they're still in that teen phase of grump a bit, so I think the full moon does make that much worse for them, but even then, they bicker and popcorn, so they're clearly enjoying the idiocy! Do you think they'll grow out of it as the teen hormones pass? I don't remember my other pigs doing this, but they were outdoor boys, so I may just not have noticed it since they weren't right next to me all day.
