eddie just runs and popcorns constantly! it's amazing and some of the pops i have never seen before. he has so much energy and he is super, super happy all the time. i swear he hardly sleeps! :))

we adopted ches when he was two years old and he was alot calmer, and although we adopted maisie when she was around ten months, she was never as hyper as eds is. she did sprint alot, and still does at times, but ches and maisie were quite quiet together and just pottered about really, still happy but not hyper! :))

anyone else got a crazy piggy? x)
 
My Sylvester is a crazy boy. He charges around his cage popcorning, often bumping his head on the sides of the cage or under his hidey. There is a ramp in the cage and he sits underneath it pushing it up with his head, he does it really quickly so you just see this ramp flying up and down. He lives with Chester who is a lot calmer although he does join in with the popcorning sometimes but being quite big and fluffy he just looks ridiculous bless him!
 
My recently passed Dappy (Wexford) was like that - he popcorned over everything, he was fairly laid back but always popcorned when he wandered about. He loved helping with the big cage cleanouts and would inspect every inch of the cage - likewise he loved the daily hoovering sessions and would purposely step in front of the hoover pole to be 'sucked up' and he would run off popcorning only to come back and do it all again.

Two of my girls Charlotte and Hannah are full of beans, Hannah runs everywhere, popcorning as she goes, she frequently falls down the ramp mid popcorn - she loves to help with the big cleanouts also - i think she followed Dappy for this, although when both of them would come and help it would take much longer than it should....

What a character :))
 
lots of lovely crazy piggies out there then. :)) he hit his head on the water bottle spout the other day.. and for some reason he found that exciting aswell rolleyes :))

he has really bonded with me aswell which is so lovely. he gets excited to see me and runs over. he's not even been here a month yet but he's settled in so well. him and maisie get on so great and he even encourages her to move around more and play. they have bonded even more over a shared love of trashing the cage, biting boxes and tipping over boxes with your head. :))
 
My funny little Pippy pig popcorns loads :)) he seems to popcorn when you stroke him on his back though & I'm never sure if it's really a popcorn or if he has a bit of a neurological problem going on. Sometimes he sort of popcorns over a bit when he does this... Pip really is an unusual piggie but we love him dearly x)
 
Mojo used to popcorn like mad all the time, Now he is older he just seems to sleep and chill.
His old cagemate smudgey was a popcorner too ^_^

I DEMAND A VIDEO OF THE POPCORNING!

we took some pics of maisie and tried to with eddie but he was just a blur in them lol. we will have to try and film him though, because he really is funny. x
 
I've only seen the odd popcorn from Tia and Ruby but mostly they just zoom around. The other two don't tend to popcorn or zoom just spend most of the day sleeping or waiting for food x
 
got a pic!

he has quite a sad/grumpy look which is the total opposite of his personality so it's really strange. :))

the six pics before we got this one were blurred eddie and eddie blurring up my chest onto my shoulder! :)) he slinks around like a ferret! :))
 
Both Tim and Mrs Fuzzy are mad popcorners, not sure who is worse, Mrs F is more springy but Tim gets excited at the carpet sweeper.
 
My Billy is completely insane. He popcorns like a madman at breakfast & dinner & runs up & down muttering to himself in excitement & wiggling his head ;)

I cleaned them before dinner time today & he found that so exciting he literally rolled into his back & did a lying down backwards popcorn!

Nutter!
 
After saying I had never seen Rosie popcorn, I think she did one the other day. Okay it was more shuffley wobble but there wasn't any pigs by her bottom (as that is what normally makes her jump) so I think I can class it as a popcorn. She is 7 (nearly!) afterall.
