[Gpdd] Health - Tricks for medicating

[Liddlepaws at aol.com]

I give my little boys chin pellet 'soup' as a treat. I soak them in water as 
Michelle described with the pellet crumbs, they love it! 

I haven't tried this with medication yet as thankfully all my pigs don't need 
any, I wouldn't mix medicene with anything without asking your vet first.

I think it's a good idea to syringe feed your pigs every now and again to get 
them used to it if you ever have to do this because they are ill. I never 
force my pigs, they always grab the end of the syringe and try to run away with 
it! 

My guinea pigs love chin pellets, but are they safe as a regular treat? I 
mean can I give them chin pellets every day or just every few weeks?

Thanks,
Joey & 3 Little Pigs
