Hi, it never rains but it pours! 
We have just taken delivery of a little neutered rescue boar and have introduced him to our two trios of sows - all six girls in with the neutered boar. Things have gone well during run time and last night we put them all in a huge 6' x 2' hutch overnight. This morning I found that Flo, one of the sows, had what appeared to be an "injured" eye. Her eye was slightly closed and it looked as if she may have been bitten on the side of her face. I bathed the area and kept a careful watch on it throughout the day.
Tonight when I checked her the eye appears to have an ulcer/scratch on it, I had some Fucithalmic viscous eye drops left over from a previous eye injury so applied a drop to the eye. She is eating well and seems quite happy, but any advice would be appreciated.
Many thanks.
