i have 2 baby piggies, 1 week old today.

i have tried sexing them but they wont stop wiggling there little legs....

i was wondering do boy G/pigs have little nipples too.
 
yeah they do hun ermmm what about taking them to your vet's for some help? or try getting some pictures x
 
i will try get some pics on here. i do want to take them vets just to get checked out but its quite away and i dont drive yet.
 
Plus sometime's vet's aren't even 100% sure themselves. Think I'm gonna take my babies to my local RSPCA and ask if they will help as would prefer to give some money to them then my vet's.
 
They do wriggle don't they!

I've found it's easiest to hold them up i.e above your eye level, towards the light - rather than try and turn them over - they don't like that! Obv. you have to be careful not to drop them, so it's a two-handed thing!

It can be difficult to tell the difference when they're still tiny - my first lot were all girls, and I spent ages looking at them every day and thinking I couldn't tell the difference - took me a stupid amount of time to realise the reason they all looked the same was that they all WERE the same!

I guess if it's hard to see it will be even harder to take pics - leave it a few days until they're bigger and try again!
