They may feel more secure if you carry them inside a cozy or cuddle cup. Try giving them veggie treats/favorite foods every time you hold them so they can build a positive association with cuddle time. They will come to trust you in time, although depending on the pig this may take more than several months. <br /><br />As for the biting... that may be their way of telling you they need to go to the bathroom and want to return to their cage! Often pigs will let you know they want to go home by nipping lightly, tugging at cloth with their teeth, or chattering their teeth.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01136777117715712592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056227010256723048.post-66993495589296378112013-08-02T23:43:32.009-07:002013-08-02T23:43:32.009-07:00Captain Pig must have been adorable then.
