This may be nothing but I’ve noticed when I or one of the other pigs touches pickle on her back area she jumps every time so I’m wondering if she might feel a bit sensitive there.I see her scratching but not excessively.Just wondered if her skin could be irritated or not?
She’s booked in the cat and rabbit clinic Friday to have a check up on her teeth so shall I mention it?
 
Please mention it so Kim or Simon can check for mange mites.
