Piggies Stay Hidden In Playpen

[HawkAlexandre]

So I have two piggies, each about 6 weeks old(but I've only had them for two or three). They have a large(4x4 feet but octagonal) playpen, but whenever I put one or both of them in there, they want to hunker down under a wooden bendable bridge, hide in a tunnel, or huddle in a corner when I take the shelters out. They always play and have fun in the cage, so how do I get them to do the same in the playpen?

It may take some time for them to adjust. Try putting food in different places, or stay out of the pen for awhile.

My piggies always cower in a corner when someone is trying to get too close to them.

Yeah idk I just got the playpen for them to play in and I want them to play in there because it has so much space. Thank you

Piggies are prey animals and anything new is scary especially as they haven't got a older pig to show them that it isn't. They are only little and will take time to adjust to new surroundings. Try putting hideys in different places in the playpen so they can dart from one to another.
