I have a large group of girls living in my shed with a neutered boar, Paddington. They get along just fine, but watching them at veg time is like an episode of Coronation street! Today I gave them a whole apple (amongst other things) and they've never seen a whole apple before, it's normally sliced into small chunks - and it was the funniest thing I've seen in a long time! It turned into a game, like football, with possession of the 'ball', attack, defense and lots of 'foul play'.
Some of their attitudes:
Paddy: I'm the boss, the apple is mine and I shall eat it all, damn you, even if I have to knock you out with it first!
Harmony: I know I'm only small but I'd really like that apple please, oops, if I'm quick I can whip it away from you
Ginny: I'm too low down the pecking order to deserve any apple, I'll clean up whatever is left when you've all finished
Kiki: What apple?
Fleur: I'm bigger than most of you and will throw my weight around until I get the apple all to myself!
Moomin: Let's all just share the apple, there's plenty for all of us!
She-Ra, on the other hand, had noticed a second whole apple while the others were fighting over the first, and had it all to herself!
Ah, gotta love the pigs!
