I have 2 boars and atm they are in 2 different cages they will hopefully get bonded in the next week or so.
Recently I have noticed that they both like to pull all their hay down and curl up on it, and have a munch every now and then. Alfie also likes to snooze in his food bowl too. They both have nice cozy beds that they sleep in at night but they like to snooze outside. I think it is quite cute.
 
Oh my piggies Bentley and Chester do the same with there hay rolleyes
Always ripping it out of the rack and getting it all over the floor to cuddle up in, it would be okay if Chester didn't have an allergy to dust and hayfever naughty piggy makes himself poorly from doing it !
It is adorable though and i can't help but let him do it because it makes me smile.
Heres my piggies being naughty with there hay !

My piggies are all different. A couple of them looove their cosy beds, Doris would spend her whole life in one if she could. Others like to lay in their hay trays while Wills likes to snuggle with his teddy bear.
 
First class seating is the teddy bear leg chin lift which buttercup prefers with her bum warming on a heat pad. Yes even now, this is her preferred virgin class sleeping arrangements for the aging piggy.:))

Second class is a snuggle sack.:p
cattle class is a house, hay moundrolleyes
 
They all switch around though Romano and Arthur both love snuggling up to their guinea pig teddy. Arthur usually puts his paw over it and his head on it. It looks like hes hugging it. x)

They all love to sleep in their pigloos or just relaxing out on the cage floor with chicken legs out.
They also like to sleep in their house made out of straw or hay or something and chew on it when they wake. Its got a huge hole missing from the bottom so I had to turn it upside down. I'll have to buy a new one soon.
 
Theyre all different here where they like to sleep (for example):

Saffy: her snug
Crumble: under the ramp
Sage: in the iglu
Dill: under the archway
Ozzie: on the sofa bed
Polo: on the hay in the middle of the hutch

x.
 
Since I got the tunnel ramp and Hazelnut will now use the ramp, they always go upstairs to the 2nd story of their hutch to sleep. The ramp is accessible at all times so they choose whether they want to go upstairs or downstairs as they want. I've removed the 2nd story divider as neither one used the enclosed bedroom part and were always crowding in the other half. So now it is one straight long area and they each have a stuffed teddy and stuffed sock pillow up there.
 
My pigs have no standards and will sleep anywhere under the ramp, in the pigloos, on our tiled floor, under the bed, under the dining table, on the sofa, or on the nearest human lap
 
My pigs love it to sleep in freshly given hay. First they eat, and then lie down and sleep.
 
Buddy is a mummy's boy so when he is out is sleeps on my chest rolleyes

He snuggles with Peppa for bed time in a tunnel thing :) I hope they are always like this!

Troy sleeps in the hay! :))
 
Mine just flop wherever they feel like it, especially when they've had a belly-full of grass!

A couple of mine really love their covered beds and always make a bee-line for those, but most of them just crash out on the fleece wherever they happen to be at the time x)

Mine like to sleep in different places depending on the time of day. In the morning they're all either in their bedding areas or in a house/under a log tunnel and then as it warms up they move out and just crash where it's sunny. Then at night they all disappear into their bedding areas where all the hay is and their little cuddle cups.
 
At night in fleecy tunnel, but anywhere during the day. Around teatime, Toffee camps out with his head resting on his bowl feigning starvation!
 
All of my piggies are different, but I managed to get a photo of Tiny this morning lying in her favourite place to sleep.. on Ted her teddy bear!

She likes to run and play in blankets, then gives up and sleeps.. Funny thing. :))


Edit: never noticed her closed eye, cheeky baby was probably pretending ha!
 
Oner of ours likes to sleep under the loose hay, the other wants to sleep on top of the hay,

Can get quite funny!
 
My two sows love to bury themselves under there hay and Willow especially loves to cuddle up and fall asleep on my lapx) but I always make sure they have extra hay to sleep under and burrow in:))
