My two boys have a grease gland at the bottom of thier back, i try to clean this but find it is hard as it is greasy, can anyone advise how to keep this clean. ?
 
Swarfega or fairy liquid, gently rubbed in and rinsed away. If it is particluarly bad, you made need a few goes at it over a couple of week.s xx
 
people that do oily jobs use it like mechanics etc, i think i got mine from either home bargains or motormania
 
If your supermarket has got a car/motoring section, you'll find Swarfega there. I've seen it in our Asda here. Also Home Bargain sells it. If you can't find it in either of those shops, Halfords would have it but will probably be more expensive.
 
I know it sounds like I am a bad uninformed mammy but I'm confused as to whether my Jacob just has very large manly/bottom bits or grease problems

I cant see any oil or greasy bits but he does have 2 large lumpy bits near his bottom that move when he rumble strutts about.

Is there any pictures I compare with?

The grease gland is where their tail would be if they had one. Not all boars have greasy glands. (well two out of five of mine don't so that's not bad!)
