One of Snowflakes babies, Boris, all grey with weird curly coat, has odd teeth.
He has a gap in between the two big front ones, (like madonna!) and when I checked the teeth again today, one had broken off.

I don't know if pigs have milk teeth that perhaps break off and regrow or if this indicates potential probs with his teeth in the future.

what does everyone else think
 
Could he have knocked into something and made them loose? Emily's (Moonies) pig Max had loose teeth I think its in health and illness.

Hope he is ok. I love Boris! x

Hey Thanks Lou! It was Scruffy though who had the teeth! they had something in between it and now constantly get things caught in between. He probably has knocked them but keep an eye on them anyhow. xx
 
Oops hehe! :) Bless him if the loose they will probably fall out and grow again, just keep an eye on how much him and Boris eat. Both boys have probably been popcorning and gone head on into the bars or hay racks etc! mallethead
 
Lol most likely! they just throw themselves at anything whilst popcorning dont they! little sweeties!
 
yes wow Boris is popcorn champion! he even popcorns off the top of his wooden house! Obv likes extreme sports!!
