Hi, I recently watched a video made by Saskia from the Los Angeles Rescue, it was how to mix up Charcoal syringes to give to Piggies with soft poo. However, the capsules she recommended I can not buy in the UK. Can anyone advise me on whats ones are suitable?. Thank you.
 
If your piggy is suffering from soft poop, the best thing is to remove veggies for a few days and see if things settle on a hay only diet. If things settle then slowly reintroduce veggies.
If after a few days the poops have not firmed up, then best to see a vet to check what is going on.

I would not advise you to give charcoal (or give any home remedies) without consulting a vet.
