PAMELAKT
Adult Guinea Pig
I treated Billy back in August for mites (treated both pigs) as Billy came to live with us & he was very itchy & had a scabby ear.
All cleared up perfectly with xeno450.
At the weekend I noticed Billy has dandruff if I part his fur altho his skin is not red & he doesn't seem particularly itchy. He also has dryness on that ear again. Nothing like it was, but it looks dry.
Called the vet & she suspected possibly mites have popped back but doesn't think it's fungal as it cleared up so well last time.
I have tonight scrubbed cage thrown out toys & treated both boys with xeno450 to be safe.
I'm now not sure if the dandruff is left over from last time or if I'm being paranoid. Is dandruff always mites? I wonder if I'm just being over the top.
I've thrown out the hay tunnel (getting fed up of throwing these out now at £10 a pop ;( can I put a cardboard tube in for them? They look sad without a tunnel... Or would you not bother putting any toys in for now?
