[Gpdd] [BEHAVIOUR] Gnawing on cage bars

My piggies have only ever done this on very rare occasions, and it has  
always been because they want to get through the bars, usually to visit  (an)other 
piggie(s). Zebra even went through a phase of chewing the outside of  the bars 
of Fidget and Scrabble's cage because he wanted to get in at them, and  
amazingly enough, he eventually succeeded in opening the cage door and getting  in! 
He just strutted about playing "king of the castle" and generally  
intimidating them, so I had to get him out and wire the cage door shut (I can  access 
via the roof).
 
Would it be possible for your piggies to live together in a larger cage? Or  
to have more floortime together? Maybe even more floortime separately would  
help? 
 
Condolences to all who have lost piggies recently to The Bridge.
