Twinkle
Junior Guinea Pig
Hi. I've had my pigs for a little over a month. One of them (Ernie) has been increasingly scratching himself so I'm going to take him to the vet at the weekend. The thing is, his brother (Bert) doesn't scratch at all so I'm thinking it's probably not mites because surely they'd both have them? What about fungal infections?
I'm thinking maybe it's an allergy? I don't know if it's relevant but I've handled Ernie a lot more than Bert as he seems more comfortable being cuddled than Bert.
