That sounds similar and I wonder if it is stones....xrays are going to be expensive. sigh. She made that noise longer however and stayed till i came out. I don't know.

So my sow, Snowball, who is about 1 year old just started making this whining noise when she was going to the bathroom this morning. I think its when she is pooping because that is what came out after making this strange wheeking noise. She sounded in pain. Now I know that if she was peeing that...

I have four piggies (2 female and 2 male). There is the possibility that I might have to move from CA to MA if I can't change my current problems in CA. I love my pigs like they are my children. I don't know what to do! I don't want to give them up but I don't want them to die in travel. Is it...

I get my Oxbow products from Pet Food Express, because my Petco and Petsmart don't sell it. I recently changed my pellets over to Kleen Mamas pellets that you order online like said above which are a step up from Oxbow products. But I wouldn't feed your pigs Petco products because they are not...

Congrats on your new baby! She is adorable! I love her name, Penelope! She is lucky to have a new lease on life with a well educated and loving mommy as you! :)

If you can lower the water bottle soon. The mother will teach him how to drink from it. Probably now the pup is just feeding off the mom and eating hay and possibly pellets. But the mom should be the main source of food. Try to keep an eye on them to make sure she is feeding. Also offer veggies...

Oh my! Congrats! Your a mom and a grandma! I know how that is! Hope all goes well!

Sammiec4 you just made me laugh so hard! My first pig was from Petco and I didn't know she was pregnant either till I heard a loud squeek and then I jumped to her cage and saw a dark object under her white tummy. I freaked out and said omg there is a mouse in her cage! My bf who was gaming on...

Welcome and Howdy! Well said Kathlaaron! I found it difficult at times to understand all their sounds but over time it's like you learn to speak guinea pig. Working on a bonding experience is the greatest thing. Once your pig starts showing affection and enjoys your company you will feel a sense...

My momma pig likes to be scratched around her ears neck and shoulder blades. She will sprawl out and even roll on her side while she purrs at me :) so cute! Love my Snowball <3

Ya he said it was a type of conjunctivitis but he said it was similar to what my other pig had. Thanks for your concern, I hope she gets well. She's too cute to look sick. :)

So $96 later, Teddy Bear does not have Pea eye, she has a type of bacterial problem that has begun in her eye. Her lungs are clear and nothing else wrong yet, so I'm just treating her eye with ointment and keeping a close eye on her to make sure she doesn't start sneezing or have any discharge...

Being a worried pig owner that I am I'm bringing her to the vet. Gonna cost me $65! Grrr. Oh well. I want a piece of mind.

Thats what I thought...what should I do? I'd rather not go to the vet if I don't have to because I've racked up a huge bill there with my other pig...but if I must...

Hi all, So yesterday I notice my 4 month old pig's right eye looks watery and droopy. Today it looks the same and I talked to my friend at a gp rescue who confirmed my worry. I checked for hay and put some ointment in her eye just in case, but no visible hay. I'm guessing its just genetics. Her...
