you should only have the mother housed with young piggy babies. other adult piggies may trample the babies or the mother could eat them when they are born because she feels they are not protected enough... the babies can be housed with other adults/babies when they are weaned at 4-5 weeks if you are talking about human babies, it is probably best to keep them away... the baby could hurt it or the piggy could hurt the baby by scratching it etc.
