we had a batch of trial genetics that wouldnt shut up. the best pigs we ever have had, next to no animals needed jabbing, best ever growth rate for the company, no tail biting. Almost the perfect pig, just they wouldnt shut up, i would go and give them extra straw in the middle of the night to shut them up for a bit. All they were doing was sitting on each other, drove me bonkers the noise they made. these were split sexed pigs.
All i would say is, the farmer is probably very aware of it and is not happy about it himself, and is driving him mad with it.
if its the first time you have noticed them, its probably some trial genetics.
i know its hard, but to be honest having the council giving him grief over it is probably the last thing they need, and also there is very little he can do!
