...well, when food is involved!
I've had them about 2 weeks, and already they have learned where the fridge is for their greens, where the dry food is kept, and the container (which is a vodka shot glass 😆) i use to measure it out, that means if I pick it up, it's about to shower them with the goodies!
As soon as I go in the fridge, do they make noise? ...nope! Can i take things out of the fridge and they make noise? nope! If i touch the specific bag(s) that contains their greens of the day, do they make noise? Yes, lots of chirping and even 1 popcorning I've noticed already. I've no idea how they do it, it isn't like their food comes in bags that make a unique noise. But they know if I have touched their specific food bag somehow.
I would love to know how they can tell with such precision, and learn so quickly. They're still very skittish and averse to... basically my existence, but they've still learned that one specific thing so fast.

Unfortunately, their learning is limited to food. One of them needs a little more experience when it comes to hiding... at least its the same color, ish?

They are ridiculous. Mine have moved on from wheeking when they hear a chopping board - to wheeking when I feed my cat as they know they're next.

In the morning it's when they hear my alarm or ear plugs going into their metal container. Obviously I have to sort the pigs before using the loo, making coffee, etc.
