Travelling together or seperately?

I am going to take my 2 young boys to the vets as soon as I can get an appointment following on from a previous thread as I think they have mites- lots of scratching and now head shaking.

My question is do I put them in seperate boxes or a box together to travel over in the car?

Thanks
 
I always put mine in the same box. If one needs to go to the vet I take two so that they have company; it seems to calm them down. I suppose it depends on how your pigs feel about confined spaces and each other though!
 
Regardless of who is ill, I always take my bonded pairs to the vets together. That way they are exposed to the same smells and they don;t fall out.

The only time I would separate them is if one was ill and their getting better was being hampered by the other...(and having separated them I wouldnt; expect necessarily for them to want to go back together)
