Hi there,
I find myself in a situation where I now have 3 separated boar! Its a long story. Each piggy has a 2x4 c&c cage which are placed in an L shape with a small gap between each one.
I have recently moved them closer to each other as my original piggy Sonny seems to be spending alot of time in his house. Sonny has always been shy but when he's very dominant around his friends.
I can't figure out if being closer is making him happier and wants to be closer or if he is mad? I let him out to run about the other two's cages and he was rumble strutting alongside the bars and they were sniffing each other but while rumble strutting. It didn't appear friendly? Is this normal dominant behaviour or could they potentially bite each other through the bars?
My second question is now Sonny is biting his cage anytime Scooter (he's in the middle cage) goes down to see him. Is this because he wants to see him or because he wants to fight him? Scooter is very confident and mischievous. There is alot of back and forth talking.
Bear is piggy number 3 and he's very chilled and at lives at the opposite end of Sonny. Do you think if I moved Bear into the middle cage between Scooter and Sonny it would allow them to stay closer or would there be a better configuration for the setup or do I increase the gaps but then they have less living space! I just want them to be happy.
Thank you in advance.
