Healthy =The cage which to your opinion is bad.
Unhealthy WAS In a smaller cage that had gotten too soiled so now he is sharing the big cage ( Which divided so they will not come in contact. Is the cause of illness a mystery? No. Don't explain that to me. It couldn't be help as I have had to...
Considering he only has thumped three times in the five hours, i think he gonna make it.
Thinking about it, he might be getting what I am. I have a node on my neck the size of a large grape right now and the flu has gone around my house like mad fire.
Cage dimensions are 36" L X 24" W X...
Since he does it on the fly, I can't get enough time to record it.
Maybe I should note the thumping is with his respiration? I'm stress out and tired right now, I don't remember if I said that or not.
I'm pretty sure he has a small URI, but this time i'm going to catch it.
The cage the other one lives in is spacious ( Though i forgot the exact measurements) and has a high ceiling. The lid raises up ( I have it locked in this position) and the frount facing side is open. Henry has been living in it for the past few months without a problem, and he's the old man of...
There is ventalation when the lid is up, which is always is. I learned that the hard way.
And I'm totally dependent on my parents to get me litter and such. There's nothing I can do the change the speed on when I get things. It just so happens that we don't have money to buy litter, as my...
My first ever pig, Henry has turned seven this year! Needless to say, he has been a fighter!
He has outlived two cagemates,2 hamsters, a mouse, a leap out of my hands, and the beginning of a URI. We had some rough times together such as a blizzard two years back. We lost power for about 3 days...
Sorry to reply so late!
He turned 7 this year. ( I don't call him " Old Man" for nothing ^-^)
He has another cage mate, but they've been having the typical boar problems ( Which is the first time it's happened in the now 3 cage mates he's had.) So i think it's the other pig, who just turned...
Here we go again.
So I came into my room and heard the dreaded piggie thumping noise. I check the two and it turned out Alphie was thumping every so often. I brought him to the bed with me and he thumped every 7 breaths or so. Then he coughed and he hasn't thumped since.
I don't know if i'm...
Here's another update:
The whiteness has been gone for nearly two days now! So i was wondering when do you think he'd be okay to put with my other pig again?
Here's an update: The whiteness has softened and it hasn't seemed to spread.
( It's glossy because I just put a dab of neosporin on his ear. Before you worry, I looked it up and it was okay to put on guinea pigs in a very small amount.))
They don't fight when I'm around as far as I know. I'm going to separate them, in case it is a fungus. I don't need the "old man" ( He'll turn 7 years next year) getting sick.
My_3_LittlePigs;823270: Here's more pictures and I believe you're right, he is missing more of his ear.
And to the touch, it feels like the rest of his ear.
Okay so Alfie and Henry have been together for nearly a month, and at times they have their little chases, but it's never been a full fledged fight. Well I had been gone for the last four days and when I got to see my babies today , I noticed his ear has a grayish/ white patch near a place where...
