Ok - one of my piggies 'Dooley' occassionally makes a kind of choking cough sound - is this anything serious? it seems to be when she eats in a rush or if she is eating hay it sometimes happens too - it almost sounds like a hiccup but a bit more 'harsh' than that...

Anyone else heard this odd noise? or know what it may be?

:o)
 
.... Also - she appears to not eat hard vegetables that well - as in her teeth almost dont seem strong enough... either that or she likes to eat them slower than the other pigs! (perhaps i'm being too over cautious etc) she is only about 5 months old, perhaps it is to do with the younger piggies not being as stong as a grown up pig! :-\
 
I have one that does this quite a lot and I've a couple of slow eaters too. :)
 
is it something i should be concerned about or just a habit of some sort... O0
 
Well I put it down to eating too fast, it's nothing to worry about. :)
 
Well i posted about this yesterday as a matter of fact ::) But yes my piggies do it and its nothing to worry about O0
 
28 pigiges! how do you keep up with them!? wow! i have trouble with 8 of them!

At least i know that it seems to be nothing serious! - think she is just being a greedy guzzzly piggy! the noise sounds worse than it is then! hurrah! :laugh: :D ;)
 
;D yeah i have 28 of the little ::) all soo loving though with all different personalities :D
