HI Carole,
You mention that when you introduce
your girl piggies they chatter, that is a
natural responce. You should try to
introduce them to each other on nutural
ground, like when you give them floor time.
If they are intoduced in "their" cage they
will try to protect it as their terrirory. I
think that comes from being in the wild
and having to protect themself from
other pray and they consider it a threat to
their survivial when they have to share.
Think about if you had to share your food,
your home, and everything you had with a
total stranger in YOUR home. It's the fact
partly they are FORCED to do so. It may
take a long time to introduce them together
on the floor or outside thier cage or they
may never get along. So be patient and
give them time outside the cage and they
may accept another piggie into the herd.
Just remember to have enough room for
them all as well. You may have to get a
bigger cage and with it be new to all of
them it may aid in acceptance of the new piggies.
Birdie
