I have two 2yr old Juliana pigs. One male one female, Harry and Rosie.
Both pigs started out as indoor babies but the bigger they got the more aggressive they were towards each other(Thay are both fixed). We live in the country with nothing but rolling hills and woods. They love getting forage and explore and it got to where they wanted to be outdoors only. The past 4 months or so have been really tough for our family and spending time with the pigs has just not been possible except for feeding time. I finally had some extra time and wanted it to sit out with my babies but they both really didn't want anything to do with me. Harry even went so far as to snap at me. I noticed Rosie's hooves need a good trim and they both need a little TLC for their skin. What is the best way to resocialize them? I have not had this problem before even when it has been a little while between good belly rubs and attention. They have always loved to be with me especially. This has really thrown me for a loop. I love my piggies and feel very guilty for the lack of attention they have been able to receive lately. For their health I really need to strengthen our bond again so they will allow me to treat their ailments before they get worse. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried just sitting in their presence without really bothering them, hand feeding them, and slowly try to give belly rubs but nothing seems to be working😭
