Hi everyone đź‘‹

My 2 girls are coming up to their teenage time and over the last 2 days I've noticed that occasionally there'll be a quick sudden scuffle then one pig (Cinnamon I think, the less dominant piggy) lets out a squeal. There has been no bites or missing fluff or anything and both piggies are eating fine, not losing weight or anything.

After this, they seem to go back to normal.

Is this just teenage squabbles/a strong season or do I need to be worried?

Thanks in advance!
 
Strong seasons and teenage tussles are both possibilities.
It’s always worth keeping a careful eye on them, as you seem to be doing.
That just ensures it’s normal behaviour and not anything to worry about.
A squeal can be a piggy accepting that the other one is boss. It can sound quite scary to us.

I’m sure one of the behaviour experts can help more
