I'm glad she's doing better  :thumbsup: but I would be VERY wary of putting her in with boars (assuming Kunekune and entire ?) they can be potent very young  ;) A boar I bred fathered a litter at only 5 months old and I've heard of 7 month old gilts producing litters on holdings where there were no boars (presumably a brother, while they were still with the breeder and less than 4 months old  :o) and don't think for a minute that their small size will be any kind of hurdle  :innocent:

Second the shout for body spray - gilts/sows will always have a moan when you introduce/reintroduce others, but it usually settles after a couple of days. Get her back with the non-pregnant female asap  :thumbsup:
