So next sunday I have to seperate my poor baby boy pig from moo and mocha and his sister.

Currently if I pick him up and take him away from momma he wheeks constantly. Is he going to do this when I put him alone in a cage?

Also moo is about to pop soon too I can feel the babies squriming around lots now, if she has a boy or 2 would it be ok to house them together (with my first boy when they are old enough)? Or would it be less stress to just try to rehome a boy if moo happens to have one. As I would love to keep my first little boy if possible.
 
Yes your little boy will cry for a while until he adapts,you will find many people have had this issue and it is sad but has to be done,he may even appear to not be eating for a few hours but he will settle down

If there is another baby then thats fine to put with him,although if there are 2 i would not have 3 babys all together when they are all roughly the same age as when they hit teenage stage they are more likely to fall out,the best trios seem to be a daddy figure to balance out two babies,so if you get two babies in the next litter i would keep one for your current boy and rehome the other,just my opinion though x
 
Can't offer any advice but just wanted to say I am also fearing the day when I have to take the baby boys away from mum as mine squeak like mad about 5 seconds after being taken from their cage 8...

My girl doesn't hardly squeak when I take her away now I wish she was the boy 8... I'm glad he figured out the water bottle now at least so thats 1 less thing I need to worry about. Their little piggy cries are so sad =(
 
Well 1 week till I have to separate my poor teddy boy from Mocha, Cinnamon and Moo. Today I put him in his future cage for about 10 minutes while I was cleaning just to see how he reacts and he just did this the whole time =(

Me and my mom have been spending extra attention on him so that when he is seperated he is at least comfortable with our companionship.

What else can I do to make this easier on him?
