I've had my Pigs for approx 2-3 weeks, and although they've made progress in that if you pick them up (if you can get hold of them after a brief struggle), they will let you hold them for a while and have once taken some food off my boyfriends knee after sitting with him for a while. But for some reason they are still really scared! They will come out of their sleeping box if you are in the room and potter around but you cant get within 3 foot of the cage without them freaking out and hiding.
We are very calm with them and dont have any children so it's not too noisy, but no matter how much cooing and stroking they still seem terrified! Food bribery doesnt seem to working either as they still wont take goodies out of my hand, and although I feed them at the same time twice a day (to get them into a routine), they still run away!
Help!
