Aloha Everyone!

Thanks to all of you for your responses. They were all very 
informative and helpful. I'll seperate the two of them about a week 
before I expect her to pop them pups. I was holding her lastnight and 
as she was eating her celery, I tried feeling her stomach for the 
babies and I could feel 2 little pups, but there could possibly be one 
more. When she pops, I already got one home lined up for one or 2 of 
the pups, Maria little cousins. They recently had their rabbit pass 
away due to a tumor on its neck. Her cousins fell in love with 
Princess and Creampuff the first time they seen them. When they found 
out that Princess is expecting, they immediatley asked if they could 
have one or two of the babies.

ANYWAY, back to the subject at hand:
Well, Princess is barbering herself. Is that normal for pregnant 
piggies? She and Creampuff have plenty of pellets and healthy snacks, 
clean bedding, little shoeboxes to hide in, PVC pipes to play in, 
plenty of water with their liquid Vit. C added, and PLENTY of room for 
each of them. Besides the occasional barbering, she's a happy, spunky, 
popcorning pig. So, I'm hoping it's normal and that nothing serious is 
wrong. Anybody else experienced this?
