one of my piggies got into the other cage (snuffles) had a fight with his brother (wombat), wombat didnt get hurt but snuffles did, he has bite marks on the mouth area and a little downer, it didnt bleed much. and he seems fine now, but well i have to put wombat by himself he chatters at all the pigs. :( in a way i am happy my pigs get along but still poor piggy, wish he wasnt so mean :(. anyway what do i for snuffles, i washed the bite marks like i got warm water and salt and cleaned it. what else can i do, i know he isnt in pain too so thats good
 
so just keep an eye on it and if it gets infected to the vets, should i clean it with salt water everyday
 
I would clean it as long as the wound is open. Keep an eye out for infections. Poor Snuffles!
 
keep an eye out for signs of infection. bathe it every day with salt water too
