Nutmeg has had a neurological disorder for quite some time now and seems perfectly healthy other than this. She is lively and eats well.
As she runs around at 100 miles an hour and sometimes pushes into the other pigs, this is her only issue as the others don't like this.
Has anyone else ever had experience of caring for a guinea with this before?
Have you done or tried anything else to help them with a quality of life?

Would be great to hear from others with experience

Nutmeg is second from right

I have a couple of pigs at the moment with neurological issues, and have had a few in the past. They might have a wonky head or walk a bit funny sometimes but they don't let that bother them at all. They've all had/are having happy lives.
 
Same with mine too.
Just good to speak with people who have had experience of this and if they have done anything different or found anything that helps.
Nutmeg is such an angek
