Hi! When I got my second piggy it was a couple of weeks and he came out with a fungal infection. I cleared it up and a month down the line my other pig has got it really bad and the second pig seems to have got it again. I'm so frustrated! It's getting me down. I want to buy some F10 solution but I'm a little confused as to which one. There's a F10, F10 SC and F10 SC XD. Which one would be more suited for me? I also have got a shampoo (malaseb) which was prescribed for my dogs that I used during the last bout of infection. Is this ok for my pigs?
 
F10 is the vetinary disinfectant, I don't know the differences but as long as it says it's the vet one you'll be fine. I haven't a clue on the shampoo unfortunately and would be inclined to check with my vet before using anything not prescribed for piggies
 
Sorry just read my post and the ":xd:" was actually meant to be X D!
 
Malaseb is safe to use on your piggies but may not clear up the infection.

You can use any of the f10 products listed. The SC just means super concentrated. It will need diluting 1:250 but others have given links etc. The only different one to use it the antiseptic solution which is most ideal for nebulising.
