The Day I've Been Dreading

[brownbrummie]

As some of you may remember I rescued three boys a dad and two sons a few months ago. The sons were probably six months and the dad 10 months.

Well they have been living happily together for the last few months but over the last few days the rumbling has started as one of the sons has decided he now wants to be boss. This is upsetting the other son who he close to his dad.

So I currently have three piggies chasing each other around their cage all trying to be in charge.

Poor old dad is worn out and just wants a nap.

Thankfully at the moment we have had no bites or actual fighting so just monitoring and hoping that one of them will decide to back down at the moment.

They have three of everything so fingers crossed I wont need to seperate in the coming days.

I knew this day would come but I really hoped it wouldnt and they would be fine.

Fingers crossed it calms down. I've had three foster boys together. I had trouble rehoming three so did it as 2 and a 1 but as soon as I took the 1 out the two had a spat. I wonder if the 1 boar I rehomed was the calming influence.

So I would see how they go. Dad may just let them get on with it and let the one being bossy be the king of the cage! Good luck with them! Maybe 3 of everything would work?

I don't know what to suggest but when my Finlay decided he'd try using his little sausage :red on poor old Bertie, we had to separate them because Bertie (4yrs old and ill) was getting quite upset "). So we put Finlay in the travel box for the night (didn't have anywhere else...). He'd calmed down by dawn and looked sad and lonely as did bertie and they were really happy to be reunited. mallethead Finlay has since tried again to mount Bertie but understands that no means no. :{
There may be hope for your boys too...
