[Gpdd] behaviour

[Kris Wright]

My two girls have been getting along really well since they were introduced 
as adults. When one gave birth the other just accepted the babies as part of 
the family. This weekend I got a new baby buff. She is only 5 weeks old. My 
dominant pig chased her round the cage (which is quite big with several 
nestboxes) and bit her on the bottom. I have taken the dominant piggie out, 
hoping the baby will bond with the more gentle one but I want them to all 
live together if at all possible. If I send my dominant piggie to get 
pregnant is it likely that she will be more gentle and less territorial when 
she comes back. Do pregnancy hormanes make piggies more gentle? She is a 
show pig and I was planning babies at some stage anyway. Any advise on how 
to solve the conflict would be appreciated.
