Ok - My boy friends piggie - Louie - is very itchy all the time.... now he
is an all white absynnian (however you spell it) with pink skin. I know it
is probably not mites as my Fuzzy just had mites a few months ago and he
looked totally different (these two piggies live in separate homes). Louie
just has patches behind his ears (where it is a little bald ) that are a
little pinker/redder than the rest of his skin - no broken skin though- but
there seems to be flaky skin (whitish - like human dry skin). I believe it
is dry skin? I remember reading to give the piggie sunflower seeds, non
salted - no shell but he doesn't seem to be eating them??? What about
peanut butter? just a little for the oil? or would that be bad... if
ingesting oil doesn't work, we will be changing his bedding to see if he is
allergic - he's itchy all over usually, but most noticeable behind the
ears.....
Any suggestions would be appreciated!!!! we would like him to feel as
comfortable as possible - oh he is probably about 4 months old... male.
let me know!
Thanks in advance!
