New Piggies Living Outside Will Be Harder To Tame?

[SingstarPiggies]

Hey!
I am getting 2 more females soon which will be living outside in a hutch. I'm worried that it's going to be harder to tame them since they won't be inside all of the time around me and other people. Any advice?

In my experience (and my piggies are outdoors) that yes the piggies can be harder to tame as they aren't constantly around the family's voices etc but in my opinion my pigs have displayed more "natural" characteristics since living outdoors which I had missed out on previously. It's important to still take regular time out to go and chat with them and just being there so they can get used to you (which can be hard to face in the cold, wet weather).

Tell me about it! And we get a lot of the cold, wet weather unfortunately!

I'm lucky, right in the middle here. Far enough from the coast to get rid of the worst of the weather, plus places like the peak district direct to the north absorbs a lot. Just means we tend to stay mild but get a lot of rain lol

Yeah I am right down south around an hour from the coast so we get tons of it, as well as freezing cold wind!
