Anyone else have any that do this?
One of the girls always uses her little paw to shove the face of another pig out of the food bowl when it's her turn. Never had one do that. She literally slapped the others away from the bowl!
 
LOL! That's really cute. I've never seen any of mine do that.

I do have a boar though, my newest guinea pig, who loves to use his hands to eat things. I've never seen a guinea pig sit and use his hands to eat before and it always amazes me to watch him.
 
I definitely will try to one day. My only problem is, my camera when it records even five seconds takes the biggest amount of space and it won't upload. Not sure why.

I'll try with my ipod next time. :)
 
I have never seen ours do that, Treacle used to paw the syringe away from her mouth when you gave her Baytril but that's it..
 
Mooli uses his hands often. He holds any food he is eating and often rests his hands on my arm. It is so cute.
 
Aww, bless her!
Each piggie has a different characteristic, so I suspect using her paws is something she likes to do, and only her!
My Lola reverses backwards into Lily, meaning poor Lily gets a bum full!
 
Mine have never used their hands towards another piggy, but like Sport_Billy's Treacle, Ruby is one to paw away a baytril syringe.

You need to post a video, it sounds adorable! But no, mine have never done this, yet I've only had them for a month
 
Once Maple Moo was in a mood and she was at the food bowl and actually slapped the others away, didn't even look up. It was amusing because she had never done anything like that before! :D
 
LOL! I have seen Sundae use the side of her pay to try to cram big pieces of leafy lettuce into her own mouth before, but not to remove it from someone else. Cute!
 
Maple has also recently started smacking me with her front paw when I catch her for a cuddle or to move her for clean out. Little managed to scratch me a couple times!

And Patch uses her front paws to rip apart any green leaves it right cute!

Mine don't use their paws but if ever one is at the nugget bowl and the other wants to be in then someone will get his bum bitten!
 
I haven't got any that use front paws but I do have a back leg kicking girl she'll kick me away and other pigs lol
