Hi TGPF - We’ve noticed that our eldest Boar, Bluebear, is continuing to ‘squeek’ when he poops, and when he does poop, it’s usually in large batches with a lot of complaining. We have tried probiotics but it seemed to make little difference.

I have recorded a video of Bluebear in the process described above, with the noises, and a pic of the poops from that session - Is this normal?

The poops look pretty normal to me. I would get him checked out by the vet again. What did they say previously?

The vets said that there was no bladder or dental issues, analysed his feces as well and concluded that they were healthy - Overall, she put it down to him being “a bit of a whinger”, so nothing much to go off of!
 
How is he feeling? My boar is doing the same thing! He will make a lot of noise when he is about to poop and when it comes out. We're going to the vet on Tuesday for it.
