Hmm can you wise wonderful people advise me?
Not sure of what to do with Rocky, he hates all of the guineas I own marmite, humphrey, gizmo, bill, & ben. He is definatly lonely as even now I can hear him wheeking for attention. ( he had a cuddle half an hour ago).... he adores my girlfriend (emma) so having him as a house pig could be an option. However emma an i both work so can't give him the 24hr attention he seems to need right now. He is not neutered yet but its a consideration i would rather get him a boar friend however contacting a few rescues has drawn a blank. Humphrey was easy to get a friend for.

Personality wise rocky seems to attack out of fear almost like he is frightened of other pigs. I'm stumped can you help?
 
Oh sorry to hear this, have you tried him with a teddy friend? Hopefully you'll be able to find somewhere and take him boar dating, or if he really cant live on his own have him neutered and get him a wifepig, we had our boy done nearly 3 years ago and he recovered brilliantly, even if he does still have a girls name (Lilly) when we got him and his wife from pet shop we were told they were both female, i;m sure i dont need to say anymore.

I hope you can sort something out x
 
Is he castrated? Is castration an option? (Don't know how old he is), but he may be happier with a lady friend if that works logistically (i.e. not in the vacinity of your other boar pairings)
 
14 months old so just coming out of the big hormones. Emmas just gone upstairs and instantly hes calling for her =/
 
Would you consider travelling a bit further afield/arranging a piggy train to properly boar date him at a rescue, which may take a few days?
 
i would do a pig train unless one of you lot pignapped him *glare* lol but where to start =/
