hi guy

just want to know if it's alright to bath a preg sow?

thanks guys :smitten: :smitten:
 
I wouldnt unless absolutely necessary. Even a lot of the shampoos from gorgeous guineas are not suitable for pregnant sows, so leave her until well after she has given birth :)
 
I wouldn't - bathing can be very stressful and that wont be good for her of course.

Why does she need a bath? If she's a little dirty she'll be fine - if it's because she has pee or whatever all over her you could just get a sponge/cloth/etc and wipe her down.
 
she is dirty looks like shes been playing in mud ;D

just wanted to check before i did any thing so i think i will go with a wipe down for her :smitten:

thanks guys :smitten:
 
yeah, i'd agree only if completely and utterly necessary, it could cause her stress. Wiping down is best. :)
