Hi everyone, I'm not sure this is in the right place, but I was wondering if people have any ideas/tips on keeping piggies occupied, especially if they are free or cheap.
My two love boxes, paper bags, tissue paper. They also love the veggie twister hanging ball and the smaller version from p@h, with yummy stuff inside of course. They aren't so keen on tubes that they can fit in - I noticed the big Wilko near me sells them very cheap though.
I swap their house every so often, between a plastic one and a wooden one, they like to chew both. Weirdly they also really like sitting on paper napkins & on piles of shredded paper like a nest. I fill kitchen roll tubes and toothpaste boxes with lots of hay & they like pulling it out & nudging the tubes around.
All of the above things make them popcorn like mad things! x)

Outside in their run they have a little wooden house for shelter and shade but also a 'bunker' made from a large plastic plant pot which I cut in half. They like to tip it and push it around.

Any other ideas?

Thanks

Saz
 
I have been experimenting with putting their food in hidey places, in paper bags, I put hay in all sorts of paper bags and boxes, plus that dried flowers stuff you can get from Sainsbury's - hiding that.

I will also check out the link tho - thanks x
