Not quite in the same way as the piggies do, mind...

Ha ha! Don't make me laugh! I can't stop coughing when I laugh. I have the dreaded lurgy :yikes: The OH decided to be generous and give it to me instead of keeping it to himself!:oops:

In his old age Fred can't manage the required bend to collect his eaty-poops direct from the "source"
It's only as I passed him the fifth or sixth one that he'd delivered onto my chest that I realised just how gross it is (and how well trained he has me!)

I'm not sleeping upright any more @Pigwhisperer and my back only aches occasionally now when I have been bending and twisting too much like when cleaning out the hutch. I have been able to clean it out on my own for a fortnight now without help from my son.:)
 
I hardly ever see gladys & pip eat their poops.... . . Am sure they do....

That's good, a cough is the last thing you want with a bad back. Hope the lurgy clears up soon. Lemon & honey is what the doctor recommended last time I had it.

Oh my piggies do it all the time.

Sometimes Zip will poop, and Pearl dashes over looking so happy and eager, and stuffs the poo in her mouth. Zip will then look at Pearl, shocked that her friend would steal her poop (that she was saving for later).

Oh now that is too much. Eating your own eaty-poops is fine but stealing someone else's?

I have seen this sometimes when a new, particularly young piggy is introduced into my herd. The newest piggy will eat the poops of the others which I assumed helps build up the group immune system by sharing the gut flora?

I just realized something! So when they bend down and it looks like there curling into a ball... that's when they're eating them? My piggies do it all the time and I am just finding out why they do it. I thought they were just cleaning themselves. :eek::eek::eek:

Yep that's exactly it!
