i just cleaned Chocksters cage out and taking it apart then putting it back together again took ages and was a bloody nightmare!
added a cardboard tube and bull rush ball for inside his cage and he's been enjoying exploring and attacking them since i put him back.
cleaning cages when you've got no sight is hard also but i do the best i can.
thanks for saying i'm a good pig keeper, thats made my day that has...
got him some more mountain hay as he seems to be eating it at a really fast rate...
 
so now he has a tube and bull rush ball for in cage use and outside use...
Hope he doesn't keep me awake playing with them though...will let you know if he does...
 
chock is enjoying his cage toys
He's been jumping over them, rolling them about
Its all been going on here...
nice to see him having fun in his new space...
:)
 
Chock is having a bumper time out of his cage today. i put him out to pasture at 7 45 and he hasn't asked to go home yet. He's to busy hanging out in his hay box and munching the new hay inside it to want to go back home.
as i will be going out quite early tomoro morning i'm just letting him enjoy his pen time as i wont be able to run him tomoro morning as i have to be out here by 10 30 and he's just warming up at that time so i think he would feel short changed if he didn't get his 2 and a half hour run minimum
At least he seems to be happyer in his cage space now compaired to this time last week...
 
Sounds like Chock is having a great day Maddy!
 
he seems to be enjoying him self
he's been out his cage for the past 6 hours and he's not asked to go back home yet so i havn't put him back in.
As i have no care people in today i don't see why he needs to go back in before he asks to.
don't worry his water bottle is on the side of the pen so he has access to water if he wants it...
 
Chock spent 6 and a half hours out today
i wanted to see how long he would stay out before he asked to be put back in.
he would have stayed in his pen longer if he had had his way but i had to go out and he made it difficult for me to catch him so i know he defo didn't want to go back home but he had to so back in he went.
he's since spent most of this afternoon chilling out in his clean mountain hay inside his housey.
:)
 
chock didn't like the banging sky last night and spent all night inside my pajama top and he wouldn't come out till i finally got up after spending most of the night awake but at least being against my skin seemed to calm him so i didn't get up to a totally scared piggy.
 
chock was wheeking at my support worker as she had dryed fruit in her bag so he went mental when she came in to say hi...
 
Chock is enjoying his outside time hugely
he loves playing with the new toys i got for him the other day...
nice to see him having fun...
 
Chock had another 6 hours out today before he asked to go back home.
he's now crashed out....
bless him
 
Chock has taken to forageing in his cage at night.
he likes finding food if i hide it under the wood for him
He is a lot happyer now his cage has been upgraded so he has room to attack things and rome about like a pig would in the wild
he's also enjoying all the different hays that i have for him.
his coat is beautiful now he's not on the wilco food or their hay anymore.
he now refuses to eat iether of them so i am pleased about that as the quality of the hay was rubbish and the food mix wasn't much better.
he's eating more hay these days which is a really good thing as that should make the bulk of a pigs diet along with veg and the nuggets should be to make up the remaining bit.
he is on the bergess xl mint nuggets as i was alarmed at the sugar content of the black current ones and i'd been given a 2 kg bag of the mint ones for free by my guide dogs volentear who works in the pet food game (self employed) so it was nice of him to give me them i thought. Chock approved as well by wheeking really loudly when we brung the bag upstairs.
 
Evening guys, can anyone advise me on what a happy piggy sounds like I have looked on YouTube but what some say are happy some say are not happy x
 
the wheekwheek noise they should make when they hear the salad bag rustleing is a happy noise
gentle purring when being stroked is another one
rumbling isn't how ever and niether is teeth clicking, those 2 sounds mean "angry pig alert!"

And you better listen to that alert, one of mine bit me. It was a defence bite so it was deep & agony, cos the flaming things won't let go. I am very respectable of Tia & watch where I put my hands.:lol!:
 
Chocks been causing me to worry me self stupid by jumping on top of his hay box yesterday so i had to lift him down from the top as he was making whimpering noises for me to help him and today he's been jumping on and off his house which worrys me...
don't know what he's playing at...unless it him finding how his whiskers work... thats the only reason why i think he's doing that
if anyone else has any other ideas feel free to let me know why he could be doing this...
 
chocks really been enjoying his morning runs but if he feels he's not been out long enough for his likeing he will make ite really difficult for me to catch him
Naughty piggy!

ha ha pesky little Chock, such a character
 
he's sertainly got lots of that...
anyone else noticed that the smaller the animal, the more personality they seem to have or am i the only one who's noticed this?
 
chocks been doing my nut in as he's been wheekwheekwheeking cause someone near by has been cutting grass and he wants it...
 
he was also annoyed that he didn't get his 3 minimum run that he's gotten use too so he made me feel bad about that as well...
he knows how to tug on heart strings thats for sure...
 
ha ha Piggy emotional blackmail! They are so skilled in it.
 
Chock is a lot happyer this morning as he had an hour and a half run time
he wasn't happy with yesterdays run as it was under an hour so he wasn't a happy piggy and he made me feel terible because he didn't have his 2 hour run like he usually has...
 
chockster is in a much better mood today as he had an hour and a half out this morning as i had to go out at 10
I did try and explain that any run is better than no run at all but he carryed on teeth clicking and rumbling at me

naughty pig...
