Hey,

What to do?
Attaches a picture of the hair and the pigs
 
Plus, every morning they run very fast in the cage for half an hour ...
Is this normal?
 
please help me....
I'm under crazy pressure
 
The running is nothing to worry about

it is called zooms or zoomies and means they are happy
 
As for the hair, any sign of baldness or dandruff on any of them? Could have just been an accidental pull off when grooming
 
I read your guides.
I tested them well, no signs of baldness.
But I found more hair ...
 
Can you tell which piggy it is off?

How much hair Have you found? Does it look like root is still attached?
Remind me who lives with who please and the gender of them?
 
It probably belongs to the female.
I have two pigs:
Male (in isolation, next week he will be neutered)
Female, probably it's from her ....
Both are two and a half months old
 
What to do?
Go to the vet?
Or is it normal?
 
So the piggy the hair is from is in their own?
 
How many pieces of hair like this have you found?
 
What do you mean?
They have no babies
 
This is my camera ...
It may be a feather but the cage is in my room ....
Maybe the feather came with the sawdust?
 
I often get feathers in my hay! If you check through it as you put it in the cage then you can find anything like this/ dried leaves and remove them easily to prevent the heart attacks! :)
 
Thank you!
I was really scared (:

This is a great thought - well done
 
Hey,
Are you the webmaster?
As you may have noticed, in Israel there is hardly any information on pig handling: no one brings them hay, a large cage, and certainly no vegetables ...
They live on average for three years in Israel.
That's why I thought of building a similar / linked forum.
I would love for you to contact me.

Ha ha I have never been called that before

Sadly forums are a labour of love and a dying dying format, I say this as a member of this one - that is still managing to keep going but it is hard.
We work very hard at being a community herbut we have even declined due to social media

My advice - don’t start a forum it will be tricky to build now.
Most online forums like us, that are still alive are so because of niche and historic content.

If you want to start something for israeli based Piggy owners - start a Facebook group - Facebook is free to use and popular, very easy to attract new users...
