Hi
Fostering a young sow the vet thinks is pregnant. The latest she could have got pregnant is 63 days ago. She has a small bump but nothing huge. She is Really skittish and hides from people so she is really hard to examine. But she is is putting on weight. Do you think shes pregnant?
BTW this was an unintentional breeding as she got dropped off with her mum and brothers.
Thanks

Well, a vet might be able to diagnose an ovarian cyst by squeezing gently, but even a vet could misdiagnose one that way. Ovarian cysts are diagnosed by ultrasound.

Has the vet x-rayed her to see if she's got a pup inside? Is she showing any of the other signs of pregnancy?
