Hello !
We got a couple piggies unfortunately from Petco. One of our piggies Mocha started experiencing hairloss. We took her to Petco which sent her to the vet and diagnosed it as ringworm. It has been 2 weeks on meds and she is still itching and it just looks painful. 2 weeks was the turnaround time for treatment. Not sure if I should take her to another vet as I'm not sure what "healed" ringworm should look like. I feel like it could also be hay mites based on research 2 pics below one where it was red was when we initially noticed it and the other where all hair is gone is current. Please give any recommendations
