Hi! My pig Lottie has had this yellow scurf on her ear for a long time but I have no idea what it is, she has it on the other ear too but as that ear is brown the scurf looks brown rather than yellow. Is it just dead skin build up or is it something like fungal? Thanks in advance!

I can't really see anything in the photo @CavyConnoisseur but if you're worried then a vet visit won't harm.

I know my pigs can get dry ear flaps. Sometimes it happens when they not feeling well in other ways.

If you look closely you can see normal pink skin and then patches of yellow on the ear, I probably should've zoomed the photo in before posting, sorry. :P
