What can be up with Eddie.

Eddie as a bold patch hes been going nuts about. There is nothing there but just a bold patch. No scabs no flakes nothing. I put caniston on it like Suzygpr said and he seems less stressed about it. Hes eatting and drinking and annoying his cage mate. But when I pick him up hes not struggling and scrabbing me like hes done for the last year and a 1/2 of his life. ?/is he just feeling sorry for himself? Hes also squeeking like he use to when he was a baby piggy. :...

Have you thought about fungal? It doesn't necessarily mean ringworm, but in this warm, humid weather fungus thrives. You can also give a bath with either nizoral from the pharmacy or manuka & neem shampoo from Gorgeous Guineas.

If in doubt, I would see a vet.

You know your pigs better than any one else so if his behaviour is out of character then a check up would be a good idea. I know you think you're paranoid and worry too much but if your gut tells you something is wrong then best get it checked out - a least you can relax if all is ok.
