Don't worry - most pigs have food deposits sitting in their mouths most of the time and as Baytril taste bitter Piglet won't want to take it down. If you add a little cranberry juice or even a touch of ribena you may find it easier to give.

Piggies tend to have gunk in their mouths - your piggy has obviously hit the pellets and is not all that keen on swallowing bad tasting baytril! If she'd been eating grass, it would be green!
 
Thank you! Was worried it was something nasty! x
 
I'm not sure, but my guinea pig once had it and I just left her, and she was fine. I think it might be off, if your piggily has been eating a lot of hay, because my piggies get grass stains around their mouths when they eat grass! (Not quite the same thing, but still..)

I hope this is useful!:(|)
