About 4 days ago, i cut BrownPigs claws and he wriggled at the wrong time and i cut one bit short. There was no bloody but he squeaked a bit.

Now he seems to be limping and i think it is on that foot.

I think he is also feeling a bit sorry for himself as he was snuggling on me which he doesn't normally do. It is also what Beans was doing before he died three weeks ago.

He seems ok in himself and is eating. Can someone reassure me that a limping pig can get better and is just having a bad day?
 
Hi,
Sorry to hear about BrownPigs - they can be such a worry. I've cut my pigs claws too short before too. I dont think they limped afterwards though. One of my pigs was limping last week and the following day a claw fell off (I wasnt even clipping them at the time or beforehand). She was fine though.
Hope your BrownPig is okay,
x
