    It looks a tiny bit red but it's not watering anymore she's still blinking and keeping it closed tho. I have fucithalmic eye drops on hand (I always keep a tube around I get frequent eye infections) and I read that it's sometimes given to piggies, should I use it? The vets pretty far away and...

    Eyes/Non-crusty Hay in her eye

    It was in the outside corner of her eye and it was more of a seed than actual hay. It's looking much better since I flushed it with some saline though. It's less watery but she's still blinking a lot.

    URI/Upper Respiratory Infection Weight loss?

    So we're on day 2 of Smush's antibiotic. We were at the vet yesterday morning and she weighed in at 862g. Today after work I weighed her and she's 859g but she seems to be doing much better--she's zooming around the cage and popcorning as I'm typing. Should I be concerned?
