Hi Peeg People! We're adopting a baby boar to be buddies with one of our adult boars (about 4-5 years). He'll be 3 weeks when we're due to pick him up. We'll have to drive about 1.5 hours to bring him home - there aren't any rescues with babies any closer. Need advice on whether to transport baby alone and bond him as soon as we're home, or to bring his soon-to-be friend along and let them do a bonding session first and then travel together. We've never adopted a baby before. I'm a little worried that travel stress might upset the bonding; on the other hand, I'm worried about baby being without other pigs for too long. Perhaps 1.5 hours isn't that long, but I have no experience here. Thoughts? Thank you!
