Oh the joys of cleaning the hutch. Checking an hour later and finding light red patches...

Now they've had to be split into two pairs it makes this job a bit easier. So far Jemima is having the white towel lap snuggle complete with as much syringed water as I can get in her and a chunk of cucumber....

So far a gazillion poops... Some of which she has found tasty... But still no wee's! She's certainly a stubborn madam!

After all this I might still have to try Peter if hers is clear!
 
Well Jemima finally wee's after a bribe of a second piece of cucumber. Minimal fidgeting and clear.

Peter is out now and has done two wee's with no sign of discomfort and they are clear too.

Neither pig has lost weight or appetite. I'm going to clean the two spots and check again tomorrow!
 
After all that fuss there has been no further signs, I have inspected the bedding carefully this morning, there is no weight loss, no appetite loss, no change in piggytude and no signs of discomfort...

On the other hand I did sneak a couple of blueberries into their veg bowl last night... I think Peter and Jemima have played me for a fool with a nicely timed wee on a blueberry stain!
