Bad Boy acted the same way--all the way down to losing a few spikes! He became restless; it was almost a frantic restlessness, when Anja came in season. He wouldn't eat. (He lost almost 7 oz.) He would stalk the room. *Mostly he acted like a woman with PMS without chocolate!* LOL Even after we found a new home for Anja he acted the same. It lasted about 3-4 weeks. I seriously thought he was losing it! He looked like a refugee. Worse than that, I thought I would never have my lovable ig back.

Then one day, he decided to act nice for all of at least 3 and 1/2 minutes. :) After that, he gradually came out of it, started 'socializing' again and is finally acting like himself again. It took him at least 4 weeks to start eating again like the piggy he really is. He is eating us out of house and home. It took about a week and a half for him to fill out.

He is back to 'normal'. (Whatever that means.) Eating, pooping (three times a day! He is REALLY eating) and being his mischieveous self.

Take heart---either you have a male stalking his way through the season, or a female thinking of 'egging'. Boy, that was a lot of help, huh?!

I don't want to make light and possibly overlook a health problem, so keep us posted.

Good luck!
