I Only ask as I lost 1 bunny on friday (ongoing respitory infection), 1 piggie sunday (unknown causes) and now I have another bunny who's showing symptoms of kidney probs which can be caused by Ec. All animals are from seperate cages and seperate groups, other animals in the groups seem healthy.
 
There is no sound evidence that piggies can get EC but this does not mean they cannot. You can worm your pigs with Panacur if you feel the need. If you are worried about EC you can get a blood test from your buns to confirm or not if it is EC.
