Hi guys,
I have finally got my piggies after about a month of searching. They are a couple of boars around 4 months old and are totally gorgeous. I am so in love with them x) haha. I noticed when I went to collect them that they both have a couple of scabs under their fur. The woman I collected them from said it was from one of her females and another male in her group as it is Spring and they are fighting for dominance and the female is just mean. Other than that they seem quite happy healthy guinea pigs.
My question is, do I need to treat their scabs with anything or just let them heal? They are quite timid at the moment, understandably, as they are in a new environment and I don't want to stress them out too much by handling them unless I completely have to.
Any advice would be so much appreciated guys
