Hey I'm just after a bit of advice. My female 5 month year old keeps lying down all the time I've never noticed it in her before do you think I should be worried? She's eating drinking, rumblestrutting, bossing her little friend about but just keeps going to the hay and laying down. She does seem to be sneezing but she always has done really. Any advice?
 
Piggies do lie down a lot :) It may be she is starting to feel more relaxed. How long have you had her?

The sneezing is nothing new? No crust round nose or discharge?
 
A lot of piggies enjoy lounging around when they are feeling comfortable... today I walked by to find both of mine flopped, legs splayed, eyes half shut, etc. If she is eating, drinking, and normally active, I would just think she is getting more comfortable lazing around in the open where you can see her. Sick pigs are more apt to sit hunched up than to flop.
