HI :)

Not sure if I have put this in the right place ............. I have recently acquired a new boy piggy. He is very thin, but eating well. What is the best thing to give him to help him gain weight, please ? Also how do I clean his scent gland ? I have not had a boy before. Thanks.
 
I didn't think Swarfega was still made ? I will try to obtain some.

Could he have brown bread and complan made with water ?
 
Yes he could, but not often as it is seen as a treat for older guinea's, i used it on my 8 day old rescue, make sure the bread is soaked in the complan. How old is he, how much does he weigh and do you have a picture?
 
I don't know his exact age, as he is a rescue, but around 8 - 12 months I would think. He started putting weight on with Alice ( windwhistle warren ) and has continued to do so here. He feels heavier then when he first arrived, but I don't have a scales anymore. He has had a bath as he was very smelly ( not from Alice's I hasten to add ), his ears are almost healed up and he is looking GOOD x). He has started to talk to me a little now and also to the girls down below. I put him down on the floor this morning for a scamper and he was up on his back feet at the bars of the girls crate calling to them for about 20 minutes. They just continued munching hay and totally ignored him :)) He was most disappointed.

I have several nice pics of him, just haven't got around to putting them on. I need to download them from my phone first.
