Hi guys. I’ve used this forum for lots of things since bringing my piggies home but never posted. Sorry it’s going to be a long post! I’m worried about my pig Merry. I have 2x sows Merry and Pippin, presumably from the same litter. They were the same size, same colouring, and together in the...

Hi all, Just been health checking my piggies and noticed some static mites, confirmed via microscope assessment (yes I am a nerd). Sadly both my boars have quite the infestation - I'm not sure why I haven't spotted it sooner, and I am gutted. Thankfully they seem to be ok, skin isn't red or...

my new boar that I've just bonded with my older one has hay mites! Any suggestions on how I could get rid of them without a bath? He's only 4 weeks old so I don't want to bathe him too soon!
