I'm really hoping someone can help. One of my baby piggies (just over two weeks old) seems to have some kind of problem. He (I think its a boy?) squats as if he needs to poop but then squeaks quite loudly and gives up. He's been doing this on and off for just over a day I would say. He's always been smaller than the other baby, but seems to be eating ok. I'm really worried that something is wrong - does anyone have any ideas?:(
 
not sure what it is but if your not sure i would take him to the vets to be checked just in case.
 
well I've just been holding him for an hour or so and he has managed to both poop and wee - so it doesn't seems like this is the problem. But he is definitely squeaking like it hurts when he does... I did phone the vet tonight, as I thought it might be a bladderstone - but they've advised that he's a bit young for this, and to maybe take him in tomorrow instead. Does this sound right to you guys? xx
