i have 4 piggies, they have been together for 6 weeks, 2 have become heavily pregannt

i removed the biggest(mia) and put her in a cage alone(to have the babies)
the day after the baby was born my other pregnant one(sheeba) flew at Lola(boss pig)

so i took sheeba out and put her in a cage on her own, mia and baby had to go in to the big cage again but i have split it in half,

Lola has been teeth chattering and snorting/mouth blowing everytime she sees another piggie and running as far away as she can get dispite her being alone in her section of the cage,
why is she doing this?
what does it mean?


mum says she thinks after the babies are born a ready to go the sheeba should be re homed, do you agree/disagree?

i really need some advice, thanks
 
I'm sorry you're having trouble with your girls. There may be a rescue near you that can help out. I can't really advise anything else. Hopefully someone more experienced will be around soon.
 
thankyou, the rescue near me isnt very good:/ theyve tried to talk me into having males several times by telling me theyre females:/ :)
 
If you have the space to keep Sheeba and her babies then why cant she live alone with them? Maybe she is just being protective as she is pregnant. I do not know if you can care for so many piggies. If you cannot then you can give Sheeba to a rescue. If you put her on the rescue and rehoming thread on here I am sure somebody will be able to help you.
 
its not that i dont have the room they live in a 24ft squared cage but if she has to live alone that means buying/making her a cage of her own and the only money i have atm is the money in their vet fund(i buy their hay and food ect at the start of the month+they have veg out the garden)
