I'm a piggie newbie so I don't know if this is normal, my pigs don't drink a lot so I have to hold the bottle in front of them so they can drink, today my piggie, coffee, was taking sips out of the bottle when I noticed while she was drinking some yellow saliva was coming out hee mouth, that never happened before, my other pig, coco, drank some water before coffee did, no yellow saliva, I'm worried if it's some sort of illness, I hope you can help,
Thanks😊

Hi! It is most likely that your piggy has something in its mouth that has been colouring the water running back out, like a bit of yellow pepper. Most piggies have gunk stuck in their cheeks at any time.

ok, thank you, so I have no need to worry, I wondered if it was the sweetcorn I fed it a while ago😁
