Eriathwens piggies

I think it’s just where the stitches were, they do take ages to break down, it doesn’t look inflamed at all. Hoping it looks better very soon x
 
Thanks, I do wonder if she had a slight reaction to the sutures to be honest, they don't usually scab up like this as they're all internal, but it's definitely moving in the right direction, I'm just impatient 😅
I have an appointment Tuesday with Hazel who has had a weird lump appear on her foot so if I'm still worried I'll bring her with, at first I thought it was a spur but it looks like she's broken a toe or something! She isnt limping and it doesn't seem to be sore however so I don't know what she's done. Got her on metacam just to be safe though. I'm just hoping it isn't a tumour, I could well do without any more cancer diagnosis' in the pigs.
Of course she isnt registered with the vet so I had to set that up, can you believe she's 3 years old now!? Baby Hazel is all grown up 😅 That would make her mother Tilly 5 now too without me realising. Scary how quickly the time goes.

I have such a soft spot for agoutis.

As @Betsy would say, don't lock your doors! 😆

Er ... I've never had to deal with impaction before maybe better if you did that! Oh and I'll remember the ladder.

Right, let’s leave the clearing because that will get us caught. You’ll have to bring the adapted shopping trolley because there’s 24 of them…we’d have to leave a few though, we’re not that cruel…right?…

OK we'll leave Gus and the 2 new fluffy ones. I've got the special piggy shopping trolley in car. Now for the camouflage ... er why you dressed in your bright orange jacket?!?

Sorry, I couldn’t find my other one. My husband was complaining I was making too much noise so I just grabbed what was available 😳
 
Went to collect Silvers gabapentin today and was able to get a cancelled appointment for Ebony at 5:15, so she can finally get her incision checked and some odd extra growth on her incisors looked at. So that's good news, I was starting to worry about the incision. Shes been such a good girl while I clean it though.

Just shows, trust your gut! Ebony was having a reaction to the sutures, she's had the middle part cut out so it should heal nicely now. We're just going to monitor her teeth for now, hopefully they resolve on their own, if not we're going to burr them short and see if the new growth is healthier, plus we'll have the odd pieces to look at closer and compare. So that'll be fun, lots of syringe feedings, fingers crossed we don't need to do that. Bit it doesn't seem to be splintered or cracked.

The rest of the pigs aren't happy, veggies are late! 😱
