Hello I asked a staff member about this but now I think it's going a little further. My pig moo, started teeth chattering recently at humans in the house including me and my wife.
I came home from painting a house and cleaned there cage. I witnessed moo chatter at me again even though I was not near him!
I turn my head to put there poop in a plastic bag to later throw away I hear teeth chatter and nibbles make a sound I never heard before like a scared/maybe ow? Skweek.
Moo took over a house and pretty much told nibbles to leave. they both want to be dominate piggies.
Lately the past week nibbles is way more dominate. He hasn't stopped humping moo. And it's always.
NNormally moo will hump him back but mostly he's on bottom.
After I cleaned the cage nibbles and moo went sideways on there body. So did nibbles and on back legs standing up moo went closer with his nose to nibbles and nibbles ran off.
I'm getting a bigger cage in two weeks. It's 10 inches under a 2x4 cage. They both have two waters.hay racks. And food bowls. And houses. And beds.
They were fine at the vet and fine a week or so ago!
I really don't want to split cage them help!

Picture is moo
 
My wife came over and talked baby like and rubbed him and he started cherping and stretching out.
I was petting him and found boars glue in his fur and on his skin I touched it trying to figure out blood or glue and he started cherping in pain.

Boar glue is not the most pleasant of things, but it is part and parcel of boar life, especially sub-adult boars. It can hurt when you try and get it off - it is really like superglue!

You simply have to sit it out; it doesn't matter what age exactly your little boy is. So far, there is some matching up of strength and dominance, but no signs of fight. As long as your boys are still propcorning and happy together in between, it means that their bond is still functional.
