Sybil's first health check

[florna]

Hi, I have a question about one of my GP girls, Sybil. I did her first health check today and I'm a little concerned about a couple of areas -- one of her feet and ears. Please see pics.



The photo doesn't quite show it accurately, but there's an area of her foot that's more pink. Not red, just noticeably pinker. Is this a worry?



She's had this darker lining to the edge of her ears since I got her (from a rescue run by a vet) but today I noticed two tiny holes in her ear too -- the photo shows one hole and the other is marked with the second arrow, though not visible. it's the same size as the one you can see.



I'm a new owner so may just be being paranoid, but I'd really love some reassurance.



Thanks,



Fran

Hi!

You can place pictures wherever you want in the text if you mark the insertion place with your cursor and then click on 'insert' when they have uploaded.

The ear and the little white thing stuck to the foot are nothing to worry about.
The other foot with the read area is showing some mild soreness.

Please check whether you want to rinse any fleece bedding more.

Both of my pigs have somewhat little rips in their ears. It is natural so don't worry!

And for her foot, it looks like a blister. My Maui has them too. I asked the vet and she said it was also natural.
