3 Boys?

It isn't impossible, but the odds of keeping a boy trio together for any length of time are against you. Boys are best in pairs and anything larger rarely work out.
 
Trios have at best a less than 50% chance of working out. Sub-adult boar trios are worst: they have a fall-out rate of around 90% in the first year. :(
Boars are best kept either as pairs or in groups of 10+ with 1 square metre space for each boar for it to work.
 
That's ok! I was just looking for one more piggy addition, but that will have to wait until I know I can have space for TWO piggy additions instead of one, since I wouldn't be able to add the boy to my bonded pair. I don't want to risk anything!

Wise words! I would also recommend to wait and see how your boys get through their big hormones in the first place.
 
Around what age would that be? I have recently expanded their house and they are bickering less, but I'm sure they'll start up when they get older!
