How to: Guinea pig grease gland?

[LittleEskimo]

I decided to give my pigs a bath today as they have been getting very dirty (my long haired in particular -_-) and as ignorant as it may seem I only just found out about grease glands :red anyway, I got some piggy shampoo from the petshop and had a go at cleaning them and their grease glands. I think I did an ok job, the glands look cleaner then they did and everything but they are still a little blurgh. Whats the best way to clean the glands? Thanks

Aw thankyou I will use that in the future. Might post some pictures of the piggies first bath. They don't seem too upset by it, ive got them some apple while they snuggle up in a towel although my long haired seems a little moody lol

Aww, we would all love to see bath pictures!

Mine all hate getting baths except for Willow, but she drys off way faster than the others since she's hairless!
