Answer
Hi Amy

Tubes to run in and out of are good, plus anything else they can hide in/under. Also anything they can nibble is also fun for them.

Female piggies can start breeding from 5-6 months old but must have had their first little by the age of 10 months or they may not be able to succesfully deliver the babies resulting in death for both mother and babies.

Males can also start breeding from 5-6 months old.
