Honey the drama queen

[helen105281]

Honey has lived with the group for about a week now and things are going ok but she is such a drama queen. They all eat ok together but when they get too close for comfort when she is in the hay or somewhere else she loves she tends to really snap at them or wheek really loudly.

Also Gertie is in season with a vengeance and Honey can't handle it, whenever Gert mounts her she tries to bite her and then Gertie tries to bite back and so it goes on.

Do you think this is all part of them establishing the revised pecking order and the fact that Honey has never lived with other piggies before?

She also tends to sleep separately too either in the hay, the little hut or a pigloo.

I would give it time and see what happens.

Sounds just like Bette, Honey can always have a home here ! Me thinks some pignapping is necessary {:|.

Aslong as blood isn't being drawn I would bear with it, I'm sure it will settle down!

We have noticed that if one of the other piggies doesn't want Honey to sniff them and they butt her out of the way she completely freaks and freezes with her eyes shut and does a really screechy wheek that goes on for a few seconds. She doesn't do it everytime but am a bit concerned. Do you think she may have been bullied in the past?
