Pigging Out

Hi how are the boys? 💙

Hi,

Both are doing okay. Bodie is always eating loads of hay and grass. He's a chunky boy at 1364g. As long as there's hay, he's very happy.

Carson has lost some weight while they were in the boarding. It was expected, especially for him, coz he is a bit of a skittish pig and always runs away whenever someone walks by him. He is currently at 962g (he was around 1030g before we went on holiday). He was a bit feeling under the weather today. He had soft poops and was off with his appetite from morning. I gave him a dose of Loxicom and given him some critical care top ups 2x today. By around 5pm, he was walking around and munching on hay and grass. His poops became better too and when I poop sweep the cage at 8pm, all poops are formed. He also ate his meal tonight. Less veggies for them at the moment.

Oh and Carson's skin issue is doing better. All his hair on his bum and back legs have grown back and only little bits of like dandruff stuff I can see. Vet had to give us an antifungal shampoo to try for 2 weeks to solve the issue and it seems to do the trick. I had to give him bum baths every 3 days. Tomorrow is his last day of having the bum bath, supposed to be today but he was feeling under the weather and I didn't want to stress him more.
 
I haven't posted for quite some time. So here are my growing monsters. Bodie weighs around 1420g..he eats hay LOADS! Every time I would look at him, he is eating hay. Carson is back to being around 1060g. It took him quite some time to regain the weight he's lost when we went on holiday last March. We are going away again end of the month (going back to Philippines to visit my family) for 3 weeks. Fingers cross Carson would maintain his weight better this time.

Look at him, he has a big back but his face/head is still tiny! He looks so weird. 😂😂 (I had to take photos sitting away and just zoomed in coz Carson always runs away from me, thinking I would pick him up all the time 🙄)

So we've been back from the Philippines for a week now. I think I've recovered from the jetlag now. I did get Covid on the last week we are in Manila (just colds and sore throat really and nothing serious) and hubby tested positive for it the day of our flight Monday last week. I tested negative Wednesday last week and he just tested negative today. No Covid restrictions in the airport and airlines anymore so we weren't restricted of flying and just wore a mask. Mind you, there are quite a lot of people sniffing and coughing in the plane and they are not wearing masks.

Anyway, here are the monsters. 😁 They both did better this time in the boarders, probably because they remember the place now. Carson even gained weight the last couple of days he was there. 👍 Oh and he definitely miss daddypig, he keeps on following him everytime hubby stands up and would wheek so loud for food/treats! 😂😂

Welcome home.
Hope you had a wonderful trip, despite the Covid and are both feeling better.
Glad the boys had a good time at the boarder’s
