I love reading all everyone sends. I'm learning so much about our pig  
Patches.  I have a question about her behavior though.  She bit my 7  yr old 
daughter the other day...she has never done that before.  She is  about 7 days away 
from her expected due date of baby piggies and I know we are  not to handle her 
much at this time, but we were cleaning out her cage and my  daughter was 
holding her as usual and, she just took a bite...broke the skin and  everything! 
Is that normal or should I be concerned?  She has seemed a bit  more on "edge" 
lately...biting her cage bars and stuff...I'm a bit nervous about  the 
birthing thing too.  Any advice and words of encouragement would be  greatly 
appreciated.
Thanks, Shelby
