Junior Guinea Pig
Hello, my lovely boar, Elliot, has fungal on his nose
It's quite an outbreak but my other boy, Oscar had it a few weeks ago but it's eventually cleared up and his fur has returned. He was staying at my mums for a few weeks and she used canestan anti-fungal cream once daily, but now Elliot has it.
Now we're back home I have a cage extension I can use to separate Elliot to stop the fungal going back and forth between each boy (I have a trio).
They would still be able to see each other, just not be able to touch or use each other's toys and bowls to stop any infection spreading. Is it a good idea to seperate Elliot from the others?
Elliot is the boss pig, will seperating the boys cause unrest in the pack? Will they accept him back with no qualms once he can return in the main cage?
Thanks for your help.
