now... i dont know if I'm being a piggie hypochondriac..(SPELLING...!)

but oliver has just done this wierd thing...

hes just flopped over... like he was standing up... and just plop slightly on his left side... and rested his head straight out on the floor...
ive never seen him do this before... could it just be because hes tired and just stuffed his face with munchies...?!?!?

he's eating and drinking and rumblestrutting like normal....

its just bizzarre... never seen him do that before...

Dodge does this all the time, he is very lazy and has always slept flat out from day one of being here. Whiskey and Noodles do it when they are dead tired too.

If a piggy sleeps like that, it usually means they are full of noms and very relaxed! Just make sure his breathing is normal and not shallow and he is most likely just a tired little thing xx
 
Did he get up fine afterwards? My Roy tends to just collapse wherever when he's tired and just loll onto his side, especially when he's just had his veggies

One of mine did that, it worried me at the time but then he jumped up a bit later and carried on munching on his hay
 
It's when they don't get up when you call them and wiggle parsely at them...so you have to resort to poking them to check they haven't, you know, 'gone' :{ my girls sleep very deeply and I always panic!
