... shes def trying to suckle and lilly is slightly letting her, she has lifted her leg and swished the tail at her but missy has went to do it again .


Is there a reason for her doing this ??

I will be seperating them now .
 
My young boys and my girls nearly all do this at certain times of the year and they do it to both females and males. No big deal - she isn't going to get any milk no matter how hard she tries LOL!!
 
I wouldn't seperate them if they get on well together; it's up to you though.

My boys play like this with other boys and some of my girls enjoy sticking their heads up inside other girls teeties. They just snuffle around in there and every participant appears to like it. Are there bugs out and about yet? This is when I see it happen most on my farm, when the first little black bugs come out. They're either rubbing through itching or they are playing in a baby fashion.

It isn't something I ever worry about though.

just reading from the other post I thought it was something that shouldnt happen .


But no I wouldnt want to seperate them , they get on really well together so would rather keep them together .

thanks tia x
 
Tilly occasionally looks for Evies milk bar (never suckled though) and they are both 2!!

I wouldn't worry though, i assume its only natural for them to do this.
