Re: Cleaning out the anal sac

Hi, I have 6 boys and had no clue about piggy anatomy especially their privy's so I went to guinea lynx to learn more about this "area" and learned how to address it. Wasn't bad at all. Was just gentle and made sure I had plenty of qtips. Some of my pigs need to be cleaned a little more often than others. I always check for shavings and things. Only takes a few minutes to do. Smells a little skunky. The boys don't seem to mind it and actually appeared relaxed. Not to get too much off the subject but being I'm in the same area, I also clean their thingy's. Too often they get shavings caught in there. My peruvian always manages to get hair tangled and wrapped around it. Unfortunately for him it has to be removed to prevent a bigger problem later.
