Today I have brought in some herb plants from outside that I bought for my boys to eat. I have potted them and pruned them, now they are in my bedroom next to the piggies cage.
Gave the pigs a few bits off each too, they love it. Sweeney was pop corning all over the place.
Also, I have a bit of a query.
My pigs seem to love attention off my like, me speaking to them or watching them through the cage or hand feeding them, but they do not like being touched whilst they are in their cage, they are bloody hard work to catch, I thought they were like that cuz they were rescued from a family who had bought them for young kids, the kids didn't want them and they never got cleaned out of fed properly, they are lucky to be alive, and Sweeney who was long haired had to be shaved as he was just one big mat, so I thought it was just cuz they weren't used to it, but had them almost a year and they aren't any different, though they are alot better once they are out of the cage, they used to try and run away as soon as you let go now they will actually have cuddles.
Any thing i can do to help?

) to being picked up, Artie will give you the run around whereas Harvey will happily allow you to tickle him and ruffle his fur...Have you tried a pet bed or cosy cup during cuddle time, some piggies find it much more secure and comfortable in a cuddle cup, and I always have veggies on hand so they relate cuddles with veggies!
