My new pig, Raisin, has a bald spot on one side towards her back legs. There isn't an open sore or any visible critters on her. I haven't seen her scratching either. They put some cream on her at the shelter (ivermectin I'd guess but couldn't get an answer about that.) She's been good about drinking, and eating her pellets and veggies. She is nice about being held, but there is no obvious indications of her being in pain (although, I've tried to keep handling her to a minimum.)
The placement of the bald spot is making me really wonder if it might be ovarian cysts. Her nipples seem kind of elongated but not crusty. I mean, if it were mites or something like that, shouldn't she be crazy itchy?
Edit: Wanted to add, she has an appointment with an exotics vet at 6pm EST tonight
