I've just been to my local P@H to get my girlies some more supplies and whilst there with my daughter I noticed a piggie with a scab above her left eye and a boar with a mark on his left cheek and that was without having a good proper look at them as my daughter was dragging me off!
Anyway, from being on this forum I was concerned that it may be mites or even ringworm so when I was paying I told the boy behind the counter that I thought the guinea pigs needed veterinary attention and that if it was something nasty then they may all be infected.
They took the little girl out from the others and I was told they would check all of them over. I'm not sure if they will or not. Do you think I did the right thing and should I have done something else/more to help? I know I'm no expert on guinea pig health but it wouldn't hurt them to get them all checked surely?
