Hi
I have two sows pearl and Mabel. They get on pretty well normally but about a week ago Mabel bit pearl on the back (I have solved the fighting issue, it was due to only having one door in their hidey). I bathed the wound and left it to heal but pearl keep scratching and biting at it knocking the scab off. After look on here for some advice I got a Tube bandage and This has helped, the wound has scanned over. However my issue is, pearl does not like it and keeps pulling it off. Whenever I see her take it off I try to persist and put it back on as I know it will help her in the long run. But through the night and while I’m not in the house I’m concerned she will pull it off and scratch the scab off opening the wound again. Does any one have any tips to help please?
Thanks in advance
