To summarise, two of my pigs have had conjunctivitis and URI's. I've just got back from the vets and they said that Ralfie still needs antibiotics and drops because he has an eye ulcer and his URI hasnt cleared completely yet. He said Sephy needed another couple of days to be safe but she looks a lot better than Ralfie so he said i need to separate them because it would mean keeping Sephy on antibiotics for longer than nessasary to prevent her catching them from him again, also because she keeps cleaning the drops off his eyes so he's taking longer to get better. He also said i should move Ralfie away from the other girls' (bumble and bee's) cage because he could give it to them through sneezing if he hasnt already. I have enough grids to make Ralfie a separate cage but he would still be in the same room as the others, I'm also worried that him and Sephy wouldnt get on if i separated then went to put them back together Ralfie is 2 and Sephy is about 9 weeks. Obviously i want whats best for them all but should i separate him? My other question is about bio-lapis, i was told to give them it in their water but they're not big drinkers, can i syringe it and if so how much and how often? Any help would be greatly appreciated
