Junior Guinea Pig
a boar of mine, Sierra, has randomly taken a really funny turn in the past 12 hours and i cannot figure out the cause. he's been refusing food and extremely lethargic, which is hugely out of character for him because he's under a year old and usually very hyper and feisty. he's fluffed up and hunched over like he's sick and occasionally crying like hes in pain but with no obvious cause. i can't see any injuries or signs of illness, nor can i feel anything wrong with his body. there aren't any other symptoms i can see. he's walking fine when prompted. his buddy is fine and apparently completely unfazed by the occasional pained squeaks right next to him. has anyone else ever had a pig take an abrupt funny turn with no discernable cause? literally any stories or advice helps.
(+if it's at all relevant, he's a satin. i wasn't aware of satin syndrome when i got him but, having prompted the breeder after the fact, his family tree apparently has no history of satin syndrome. he is six months old though, which i believe is the minimum age for symptoms to start showing)
