Anyone else's pigs groom each other? Stan and bensom never did but benson has come over all fatherly to wee mike. He seems to lick mikes head all over and mike closes his eyes and seems very happy with it.

I'm assuming this means they have bonded well? It's so sweet to see Benson looking after mike like this :luv:
 
Connie and Violet used to groom each other all the time. Violet and Poppy now occasionally groom each other but it's early in their relationship.
Mollie and Mabel can often be found nuzzling and grooming each other, too. I think it's lovely.
 
Dulcie and Barley groom each other and I occasionally catch Truffle grooming Mabel. In Millie's herd it is mainly Little Rose and she goes round grooming them all and making sure their eyes are clean, it's adorable.
 
Last night all of the pigs were in a pile, babies under momma and auntie Tonks curled along side them, momma and auntie were cleaning the babes and each other while the babes nursed and fell asleep. I could not even stand the cuteness! :love::drool::luv::drool::love:of course as soon as I slowly get my camera just as I am about to shoot they move!
 
It's really hard to get the camera inside the cage isn't it - so the cage bars don't show. Benson doesn't put any real attention into his own ablutions so this attention to mike's bonce is super cute!
