Hi, thanks for the thoughts for sandy. I took him to the vet and the lump
was a cyst caused by a blocked hair follacle. My vet is great with pigs, it
had started to burst she pocked it and it burst properly. I took some food
for Sandy and fed him all the time she was dealing with it, and he didnt
whimper or struggle. he was so good. She took it all off she was so gentle.
Now its smooth just like a scraze, i have to bathe it twice a day
with warm salt water for 5 days. I did it today and he just sat still he is
such a good pig.
The gland bit was a bit mucky she trimmed round it and cleaned it.
And he didnt have mites or anything. Where hes bonde he was just a bit dirty
from the cyst.
So i was pleased not as bad as i thought.
Carole and a bumpless Sandy(although hes blonde, my husband
wouldnt let me call him Blondie)
