Nail sideways

[dabel101]

Hi! I just notices today that one of my piggies (7 months old) has nail growing slightly to the side, not excessive id say ab 5/10 degrees to the side. Its on the middle toe. The nail, toe and foot itself look perfectly healthy. Should i be concerned? x

Do you mean it's growing inwards or twisty? This is really common and seems to get worse with age. It's harmless, though it makes the nails harder to cut. Including a picture might help if you're not sure if 'twisty' is the right descriptor. Hope this helps!

It would be easier if you posted a photo. If it doesn’t seem to cause her pain or discomfort them hopefully it’s fine.

taken a look and you have to look closely to really tell the different. It like a forward slash / but on less of an angle if that makes sense? Will try and get a picture tomorrow x
