Hi everyone
I got some piggies about 2.5 weeks ago. Had a slight accident (twisted and popped my ankle bone out) during the final two days of moving out and thus the piggies are still in their temp cage. It was my hope to have made a c&c cage for them two weekends ago. I'm doing better (i did reinjure it last Tuesday) thus delaying my move another week. But i should be all moved in June 1
Anyways I'm not exactly new to piggies I did have near half dozen 2 yrs back. A horrible accident with my first piggie caused some serious depression and I made the choice to give the remaining 4 piggies to a better home (at that time it was just too painful to have them around and a part of me kept expecting and make.every effort to get them to be like.Mocha the one that died) and it wasn't happening. They weren't bonding and one started to bite me and I felt depressed.
I recently got the idea to try piggies again. And first day I got them. I felt slight regret. Worrying I'd bring up the memories of my loss. But i decided to hang in there. And I'm growing more and more fond of my pair as the days go by
Week after i got the piggies.
I was petting Expresso and he purred
Instantly, Latte stops eating and rushes over headbutt my hand away from Expresso and positions himself under my hand. Momentarily amazed. I froze. And Latte looks up at me and gives my fingers a nibble, saying pet me pet me
I'm glad I got back into piggies. I'm a bit fuzzy in their care info ( I've got the basics down) as it has been 2 yrs. So I hope to be able to ask questions when things pop up
My immediate question: Expresso my black short straight haired piggie. Has a thin line about 1 inch by 2 mm. Straight. Of thinned hair on the middle of his left ear. It's doesn't look like mites. Could it be fungus? I did get them at a pet store (sorry did try Craigslist etc) none within my city and I don't drive
What would u suggest I use to weed out if it's fungus. Would tinactin powder form work if just dusted that ear?
Anyways. Sorry I'm not known for being brief. But I'd love to get to know everyone and I'd love to see some 3x5 and 3x6 cages as that's what I'm planning on making my piggies
