Hello,
Archie and Pip appear to be turning into teeny little piglets. When we go to feed them their pellets there's a lot of grunting (sounds like oinking to me) and will sometimes end in a scuffle between them. Which I break up. I'm worried it might escalate into a big fight.
They have always chased each other in excitement at pellet time, but this is definitely different.
They only did it a couple of times just before we left our old house. But it's becoming daily in our new house.
They do get more freedom here, but other than that the feeding regime has stayed the same.
Which is 10g pellets 3 times a day.
They don't do this with treats or hay only their pellets
Any ideas??
They are perfectly happy together the rest of the time. Pip is the top bun and the scuffling seems to start if Archie gets into the food first. So we've been trying to give it to Pip first. Which is hard when they are zooming around your feet in excitement.
