why does neville keep jumping up in the air?

[Jem121]

Its really quite funny. Theres no other way to explain it apart from he keeps jumping up in the air, he will then walk off eat a few nuggets and then do it again. Or he will get a drink and then do it etc etc. Is there something wrong with him? x

No its perfectly normal its what is called popcorning, it means he is very happy!

Popcorn!

her's a link to some details on piggie behaviour http://jackiesguineapiggies.com/guineapigbehaviour.html

Popcorning is great to see, sadly piggies seem to do it less as they get older

What is funny is watching a 1400gm boar wandering around and suddenly popcorning and wandering why he left the ground.

i recently took in a lunkarya who surprises himself everytime he popcorns, really funny to watch

Oh, I love popcorning pigs! It is definitely my favourite guinea pig behaviour

i love it when very elderly piggies manage a little popcorn too, they dont get very far off the ground which makes ir all the more sweet.
