Hi everyone,
So I have two gorgeous girls named Coconut and Hazelnut. They've been rumble strutting a lot and been showing some dominant behaviour for the past two-ish weeks, and it just seems like a really long dominance season. Do I just leave them to do whatever they need to do? They haven't been fighting, necessarily, just like any other dominance season.

Thanks for any advice in advance!

Hi! Please leave them. How old are they?

Ok. I'll let them be. I have so far, just been watching them. They will be turning two at the beginning of June.

So they are at the age when hormonal issues/small ovarian cysts can interfere. If it continues and one of the sows is constantly in season, please see a piggy savvy vet.

Ok thank you so much! I think they have stopped now, I haven't seen them display any dominance behaviour for a few days now.
