The boys post-neutering

[HeatherRose]

The boys are now 48 hours post-op, they are eating well, their weight is stable, and their poops are normal! Olaf is still not doing great with the pain, but he is back to rumble-strutting at the girls through the bars today, so I guess he’s feeling better. Kristoff was doing that the second we got home from the vet, little punk! Do they continue to rumble-strut long after being neutered? I only ask because my husband thinks it is adorable and said he would miss watching that Lol!Olaf was eating lettuce and chewing slower than normal yesterday, I guess that explains the green mess on his mouth!

Christian still rumblestruts after 18 months post neutering. He was always more of a rumblestrutter than Dennis. If I hear rumbling it's always Christian. He does his sexy bum wiggle to the girls to show them what a handsome and virile piggy he is then he does it to Dennis to show off!

I'm no expert but I think they always rumblestrut, it's a dominance display. I don't think neutering would affect it. Boars tend to do it less as they get older but my 3.5 year olds still dance as we call it occcasionally.

Glad that all is going well. There is no change in the behaviour.

I do think the rumble-strutting is adorable, especially when they are babies! They think they are so big and bad!

Oh my look at those little green chins!
