Chalk And Cheese! What Makes Your Pigs Different?

I’ve 4 groups and in Suzies group she’s always standing up waiting for cucumber and loves cuddles. On the other hand, Sally will take food happily but runs and hides when I want to check her over and not too keen on hugs. Lucy is fine once lifted as is Holly.
Oliver in the next group would rather just go about his own business of looking after his girls, Maisie will sit in my arms for cuddles but the babies are still sure I'm a monster! Katie Buttercup squeals like I’m killing her and struggles to get down, Gracie Ok once I’ve captured her while Poppy puts up with little cuddles. 3rd group are Lottie who begs for red pepper while her sister will take food if I’m patient, Oscar their Husboar squeals loudly while being picked up yet happy once in my arms! Group 4 are my two choc Agoutis - Tansy is too lazy to run anywhere but loves having her ears pulled and nibbled, Bluebell won’t run away either as lazy and tolerates affection!, certainly all different!
 
Corduroy is brave and likes to be stroked. He isn't very vocal except for his rumbling, and he popcorns super high in the air and shakes his head around. He's the smarter of the two, and the dominant one. His favorite activities are eating and dragging his balls around. :P

Sylvester is shy and will take food from my hand but does not want to be touched, ever. He's super vocal all the time, and is prone to zoomies rather than popcorns. He's not the brightest pig, but so funny. His favorite activites are squeaking the songs of his people and sitting on top of the hideys for no apparent reason. :love:

Leela talks all the time and is probably the happiest animal I have ever seen. She is more excited about her daily piggie life than I have been about.... well, anything! LOL! Hadley is much quieter, but is a real lap pig... she does this lap flop thing that is totally classic. Sundae was my worrier but constitutionally was strong as an ox and went through multiple illnesses without complaint. Linney was tyrant queen of the guinea pigs (or so she thought. Super bossy pig!) Frenzy was constantly alert and disliked male voices/hands.

I think it was more the voices, but she didn't want the big scary voice humans to touch her at all. She was okay with my son, who at the time was about eight and still had a little kid voice. She was terrified of my dad and would just freeze if he ever tried to touch her or pick her up. Same with my husband. I was always glad that we had her before my son's voice changed because he loved her and she probably would have ended up scared of him when he was older!
