Just wanted some advice please. One of my pigs looks like she has lice, small not fast moving white(ish) coloured creatures, mainly at the base of her hair. Have done a bit of research and most say just to shampoo, clean the hutch with spray....is it best to treat all the pigs? I was thinking if one has them, then the rest probably do.
She doesn't seem stressed, but I noticed her scratching a bit today so thought best to check.
Thanks
 
I would recommend bathing all piggies in the group when you have skin parasites.

Gorgeous Guineas have lice'n'easy shampoo which many members love because it gives a lovely shiny coat.
 
Thanks, thought as much, ooh, this is going to be fun! lol, have 5 in the group, so if I start now, may get it done today! looks like there staying indoors for a few doors then...mmm...hubby will me mad! lol..
