mollie and benjie groom each other so much. it's so lovely to see and you catch them having kisses alot! :)) grooming is very much mollie's 'thing' and she groomed eddie alot, and now she grooms benjie alot aswell. i feel so chuffed for her that benjie also grooms her. when he first did it, she looked soooo happy :luv:

they've been extra affectionate today, kissing and washing each others face and ears :luv::luv::luv:
 
My older neutered boar and sow pair groom each other a lot. Always licking eachothers ears and eyes. Acorn my sow was always really attentive to their two (now passed away) sow friends, both of which were blind. So I think she is just a very caring girl. My current boar pair don't really groom one another nor do my other boar/sow pair.

But is is SO cute when they do :)

aw how lovely :luv: when mollie and eddie had to stay at the vets a while due to eddie's kidney disease, the vet said that mollie was so protective of him and very caring :luv:

mollie and benjie probably groom each other the most i have seen from any of my pairs previously although my first piggy couple ches and maisie also groomed alot :luv:

ahhh they're just too cute! :love::love::love::love:
 
That's so lovely.

My Mabel grooms any pig she is near when she is in the right mood. All of Millie's herd groom Katie the skinny, she protests and then sticks her face out for more.
 
My Emma is constantly grooming the ears of her friends although last night I caught her barbering baby Ellen who has longish fur around her bum :hb:
 
Astro and Twinkle groom each other a lot but also do a lot of neck rubbing. Mind you since little Nova joined the group Twinkle has sort of given Astro a few reminders that she is now top Sow.
 
Not much, honestly. I've seen it more with newly-introduced pigs, or if one of them has been away (i.e. at the vet) for a few hours.
 
:DDandy will groom Beano around the face and ears quite often:hug:, though I don't see Beano grooming Dandy very often! Crow Feather will groom Swan as well in the same way, and again, not so much Swan grooming Feather. I have never seen Inka grooming Maya, or visa versa.:hmm:
 
Arr very cute, I did used to see Sheamus and Big's groom each other when Sheamus was still with us. I see Jericho sort of trying to groom Big's (Big's new cage mate) only he's a little rough lol. I see out little boars do something odd as well, Storm will lift his head and poke his chest out and Snow ill look like he's grooming him but I'm not sure if it's something else or if it is grooming? Guinea pigs are awesome little animals, I love watching ours.
