i was giving roger a kinda-bath (wiping him down with a wet rag with shampoo) and when i was doing his "manly parts" he had a poo that was being pood (or so i thought) but when i put him down to let him finish, and then picked him back up he still had it. i noticed it was dry...i helped him get it out...should i worry about impaction? i looked some more and it looked like he had quite a lot of "glue" >>> tried to wipe but he seemed uncomfortable and kept squirming. what should i do?

hi love the girls from the UK use swarfega, it's a hand cleaner
i tried shampoo to get it off but it just doesn't...... poor Sully used to be humped by Duke and Duke would leave him stinky rolleyes and with glue on :x

as for the impaction, it's usually in older boars....... you just need to check regularly and gently manipulate the impacted poops out..... i used to do it over the toilet and flush it away or over the box that i used to throw their wet newspaper etc.. then dispose of it.

thanks for the link...roger certainly doesnt have an issue as bad as that poor pig in the picture, but it's good to know what to look out for!

i thought it might reassure you

if you do end up with one of them with impaction as long as you clean regularly it doesn't become an issue........ well that is what i found!
