yes 2 boxes is very entertaining as they can't decide which one is the
best and they keep swapping. The door opening gets chewed like crazy.
The first house I put in there was wooden but one Pig must have jumped
on top when she was alone and must have fallen off as we subsequently
found (by noticing how much weight she lost and how quickly) she had
broken a front tooth. They never attempted to jump on top of a
cardboard house so maybe they instinctively know it would not be
strong enough or maybe they remember the fall. What do you reckon? We
also bought them a wheel to exercise in when they were small but they
weren't interested at all. They just stood there looking worried and
confused so we adandoned it.
