New Born Pup
I adopted 2 boars of unknown age from the adoption section in Pets at Home about 3 weeks ago. At the time they looked massive so I am assuming that they are fully grown/adult.
Up until yesterday they were getting along fine, eating out of the same bowl and sleeping in the same house. This evening however Patchy (slightly smaller in size) was chasing Brownie (larger size) and kept trying to walk on top of him and Brownie just sort of stuck his nose in the air and ran off. Patchy would then run after Brownie and kept trying to nibble? under Brownies chin or on his sides which then resulted in squealing and Brownie running off.*With the nibbling there was no hair or blood so I didn't think it counted as biting*
From what I can gather Patchy seems to be the one starting it all and Brownie doesn't seem interested and just runs off or ignores Patchy until the nibbling or walking over starts then Brownie squeals or may just run off.
They have 2 houses, water bottles and food bowls so should I be concerned or are they just getting sorted out now that they have settled in?
