Hello there, I'm having an issue with one of my piggies. Completely out of the blue, Saige started losing hair. The hair loss is present on her rear, back legs and lower belly, nowhere else. It looks like it's been a few days since this started, but I just realized it now. The skin where the hair loss is not red or puffy, it's normal-colored yet feels very rough. What really concerned me was when she went to go itch, she fell onto her back in an itching fit and did not get back up until a few moments later. After getting up she was slightly shaky but continued on as normal. When I witnessed this I was panicked, I thought she was leaving me!
I know this is not contagious as her cagemate Alaska is not losing hair and is doing just fine. I examined Saige and found no traces of mites, but I'm not ruling that out too soon.
Can someone please help?
