Rodney seems to have developed a love of nipping everyone,its not nasty hard biting but i was wondering if this is just a stage baby pigs can go through and how can i stop him doing it?
 
I could be a phase, or it could be mites. Keep a close eye on him, if the nipping gets worse, I'd take him to the vets for treatment.
 
Hmmm, well I'd wear gloves so it didn't hurt. when he nippled too hard. He'll get use to you being handled though, sometimes it just takes a bit of time.
 
It could be he's just having a stroppy stage, Roger tends to nip wehn he's not in the mood for fussing/lap time or he needs to take a whizz when he's having lap time.
