New Born Pup
It's been a while since I was last here but I am back with some questions about my pig Bear. He is almost 2 years old and usually weighs around 1300 g. In the past month or so he has gradually gotten a little bigger but not too concerning, highest weight about a week ago was 1376 g. His weight today was 1276, and it has been going down for almost a week. At first I wasn't concerned but in the past few days there has been some dark (brownish, redish-orangish) urine in the cage he shares with Bandit, who is 7. I seperated Bear into a separate cage today to see if it was him with the dark urine. His poos today have been dried out, even when they are fresh.
Yesterday when I had them out for floor time I noticed that Bear was squeaking when he peed and pooped. Today, he started squealing pretty loudly, almost non-stop. He has never been too loud of a pig except when begging for treats. It doesn't sound like normal wheeking and I have only heard this when trimming nails and he thinks I'm going to kill him. In the cage with Bandit and by himself he has been pretty withdrawn, sitting under a level in a corner. Bear has also been more skittish than usual.
His eyes have been a little wetter than normal and he has been blinking a little bit.
In the past 30 minutes Bear has been squealing almost non-stop and alternating between laying down and standing up frequently. I gave him some lettuce earlier and he gladly ate it, just slower than usual, but when I offered him hay and pellets he ignored them.
I have a good local vet that I recently took Bandit to for a check-up but they are closed today and tomorrow.
Any advice would be great!
