Noticed yesterday that one of my guinea pigs, Zag, has developed a bit of dry skin on her feet. It sticks out slightly and just looks like a layer of skin that's died and gone a bit crusty and is hanging. H
ave had a look in some of my books and it recommends trimming it, how long should it be before I trim it? The skin is only sticking out slightly at the moment.
Just wondering if there was any cream I could rub in her feet to help? Would just some E45 or vaseline be OK or would I need something just for piggies?
I clean their cage thoroughly twice a day and they're bedded on Megazorb. Only one of my piggies has this problem, the other has lovely smooth skin on her feet so was wondering if anyone knew what could cause this?
Thanks!
