AnswerYour piglet is perfectly normal. This is how healthy, happy piglets behave. They love to explore and talk. Your piglet will also root, that's a natural instinctive behavior.
Pigs are not like dogs or cats. They think and act very differently.
Trick training helps the pig and the person learn to understand each other. It's a good way to bond with your piglet.
I highly recommend the book Pot-Bellied Pig Behavior and Training by Priscilla Valentine. Pris really understands how pigs think and why they do the things they do. Pig behavior is a big topic, and she goes into it in much more detail than I can here. Her book is available from Amazon.com
