Recently when I was trimming Tuulikki's nails, I noticed little hard growths on her feet. After freaking out, I did some research and discovered that they are in fact little foot spurs. I have been monitoring her and don't see a change in activity level so I don't think they're hurting her. So my question is, should they be removed? I watched a few tutorials on how to trim them and apply iodine.
My other question is why? Tuulikki is my most active pig. She's constantly bouncing and running laps and hopping up on her house. Tove is my lazy pig and she doesn't have any sign of foot spurs. I keep their cage clean, but I don't use fleece as bedding- I use aspen shavings.
