I have noticed for a while that Daisy will spend a lot of time in the dining room instead of in the bedroom with the other two girls. She has lots of nips on her ears but I have never seen Poppy or Rosie nip her and she is definatley bottom of the pecking order. She chuckles and seems happy to be back with them after cuddles but I was just wondering if she is really ok.
 
She may be excluded for the group. My girls are in 4's that way they have company. Trio's I have found there can be one pig left out.

They may be bullying her, I would monitor closely.
 
The newest nip on her ears is about two weeks old but every now and then she ends up with a new one. I think she does spend the night in the bedroom but they are covered up so I can't see. Could it be that she prefers some alone time? She has lived with the others almost all her life so about a year and a half but the last nip she got was quite bad n I have been a little worried about her. As she is only nipped on her ears not anywhere else could it just be Poppy telling her who is boss like "thats my food" kinda thing?
 
She seemed ok at suppertime, no new nips today. They all went into the bedroom when I tucked them in and all sounded happy and they were all munching hay together. Maybe I'm just being a big worry wart :{
