Some of my piggys are happy to be picked up but for others theyve trained me (their slave) to pick them up a different way .... here's the video - click on it to play...

Thats much better than the chasing around the cage! Loved the Video, I think your piggies are rather bright! xx
 
:o I'm learning more and more about these funny little sweekers, they are absoloutley amazing i was told you can teach them things but wow!^)

theyre so intelligent lovely pigs CUUUUTE skinny pig
 
Hehe-this made me chuckle!

They look like they're havinng a great time, their own personal lift! :))
 
I love the video :)) Thank you for posting. I was thinking of doing a video like that myself to post, but you've saved me the job :)p

They have no problem being transported do they but show them a scary hand and they run :)) All my Foster piggies get taught to be picked up via carry box and fleece bag, and it takes them about 4days to a week to be confident with it - fantastic I love it.
:)
 
wish mine would do that, they have all figured out that if they go near the tunnel ramp then I cant catch them and boy do they know it rolleyes
 
For teh first few weeks that we had them, my two boys were impossible to pick up (very nervous), so I started to do that with a snuggle sack, much less stress for everyone! But the little so 'n' so's decided that they didn't want to be picked up that way either, and started to refuse to get in the bag! They are quite crafty, they certainly know how to 'put their foot down', as it were:)). Luckily we can pick them straight up now.

Thanks for sharing your video, lovely to see them so happy to hitch a ride! :)
 
haha thats great! Three of my 4 have no problem, actually tbh none of them have a problem with being caught/handled, but Big Dave likes to cause trouble when it comes to run-time and hide under the ramp (difficult when you're a very fat pig!) and when you try and get him out, he does the longest, loudest wheeks you've ever heard - I'm sure the neighbours think I'm murdering him! I just gotta get to the ramp before he does!
 
lol....thanks everyone..... what you didnt see was the first of those 5 piggys.... she (Ebony) loves being picked up ... she's a self black and stands on her back legs like a grizzly bear to get picked up ..... but I couldnt film it and pick her up at the same time....lol...

Brilliant video!

We've taught our boys when they are having floor time that when we bring their tube and tap on the top of it they come running into it and I lift them and put them back in their cage.

For some reason when we are trying to bring them in from their outside run the same rule doesn't apply with them and we have real fun and games trying to get them out of there, strange piglets!
 
Can't believe I missed this first time round! That is such a fun video! I love the piggie lift!
 
They are so clever! I cannot believe the way they know that the bag means they have to get inside. Mine would run away!
 
Hhahahahahahhahaa! :)) :)) this made me smile sooooo much :)) thank you for sharing the video!
 
Hehehee! Brilliant! What clever piggies! Thanks for sharing!
