Hey everyone,

my two boars had to be separated as they HATE each other. They live side by side, and have one part of the cage where they can see each other. Diego is very aggressive, he rumble struts and teeth chatters every time Scruff goes over to see him. Its so sad, Scruff is obviously desperate to be friends, lying by the side of the cage 'talking' to Diego and Diego is just mean! (although both of them do start popcorning after the rumbling which is weird!).

Anyway, I thought it might be good for Scruff to get a new friend. Does anyone know of a rescue in Cornwall, near Newquay maybe where I could try finding him a friend? The RSPCA doesn't have any piggers at the moment.

Also they are in c&c cages at the moment, 2x3 grids. How much bigger would i have to extend the cage to have scruff and his new friend living together? x
 
how old is scruff ? if he is young an older boar might to the trick as there wouldn,t be the competetive thing that diego has. but having said that, as they popcorn after the rumbling i,m in charge bit, it sounds as if they are boys who are friends but diego asserts himself as boss, as long as they can see each other i don't think you need a third one in the mix and certainly not a girl even if she was neutered! hope this helps you, good luck !

They are both 7 months old :)

Thank you for helping me! I just worried as 90% of the time they are looking at each other Diego is being so aggressive! Hopefully they are friends and it all calms down. But will not get a girl if its not a good idea! x
