It's not something I have personal experience of, but I've asked a few friends for advice - will let you know what they say.

Thank you

She is still in perfect health, no signs of feeling under the weather, no loss of appetite etc
I am inclined to just monitor her for the next week and see if it increases then decreases and stops naturally before speaking to the vet again rather than just go straight back onto tylan.

Just hoping that it doesn't kick off any fighting again

Pen and strep is the most effective antibiotic to treat it with (that's come from someone who has had experience of it first hand and knows her stuff)
Hopefully it'll clear up and not return to bother her. It's always a difficult situation with older pigs, but if her quality of life is good and she's not being bullied then there's the best you can hope for.

Ok thanks for that - will speak to the vet about it.
So far its only been a very small amount, not trickling out like it did last time.
She definitely isn't being bullied and like i say, she eats, drinks, forages and begs for belly rubs.
Hopefully will get it sorted and hope for the best.

Thanks again for your help x
