I just clicked over to the PigCam in time to see Snickers nip at Charlie. Charlie jumped and then dashed down the ramp and threw himself into the downstairs litter box. Snickers then made his way downstairs -- rumblestrutting, but at a bit faster a pace than his usual rumblestrut -- and immediately lay down with his back leaning against the litter box, effectively pinning Charlie.
Are you guys SURE this is normal and not bullying??

My piggys act that way frequently. They get along but there is still of rumble strutting and nipping. If it happened to my pigs I would think it was normal. :)

Those boys are naughty. All those yummy foods! But . . . dried blueberries, hum . . . . we haven't ever tried those. I think Fairy would leave home if we presented a dried anything, she likes juicy foods . . . I wonder if boys are more 'choosy' than girls when it come to food . . . .
I don't quite know what 'collards' are, I keep coming across them in (American) novels . . . are they what we call 'spring greens'?

Collards were and are a primarily Southern food. Interestingly, in slavery times, the greens were usually reserved for white landowners and the slaves only got the broth. That's interesting because nearly all the nutrition of the collard green leaves the leaf while it's boiling -- making the broth far more nutritious than the supposedly more delicious leaf. It's called "pot likker" and it's still served in many Southern restaurants.
In any case, my boys don't prefer collard greens ANY which way. :)

Gosh, collards sound really good! We sometimes seem to have a dearth of dark green leaves in the UK. None of my guineas has ever liked regular cabbage leaves apart from a pointy small cabbage we call 'Sweetheart cabbage'.
Hope your boys are behaving now, Alden. It is handy having a webcam so you can keep checking in!
