Is my Potbelly sick or just not feeling the weather?

Porkchop was fixed at first sign of aggression but now sweet as can be except he hasn't liked the goats since my doe gave birth last year which is sad because they used to share their living quarters before that. jj actually just showed up in my yard one day and wouldn't leave and we realized over time he must have been fixed beforehand. Old owners wouldn't take him back. Poor little guy.

As far as pchop yes I'm so glad he made it. I was working nights and spending most of my day with him in the bathroom. He was quarantined to the bathroom so no dogs or cats caught the contagious Ebola. Hope it was the extra love that helped. And the vet putting grape flavoring in the meds helped too He actually just turned 4 last month.

How's your little man?

Ebola ? I think not.

Sorry.... autocorrect to a mistype. His diagnosis was mange and E.coli not ebola I need to learn to proofread before sending. Didn't notice till I read yours

He is doing excellent! !! Cough is gone and hes back to his usual belly rub hogging self lol. I was wondering how you would have 2 males together without them being fixed. I see alot of unwanted potbellys on craigslist for free alot, most of them are males, and I've heard males will fight and I've also heard stories where they can live together in harmony but I would hate to upset the good balance we have going on, it just breaks my heart to see those potbellies needing a forever home. Too many people underestimate what it takes to own a pig when they get one when they are small and cuddly.

Pigs intended for pets need to be castrated.
