Hi
So glad your boy settled and all is well. We are expectng our first ever piglets in a few weeks, when old nough to leave mum. Your question made me think..
With a horse, showin non specific symptoms, no obvious injury/pain/clear symptoms, I would prior to calling vet look at vital signs, temp/pulse/resp... and report to vet over phone, as well as obvious things like eyes, nose mouth, colour, coat condition, etc. Is it the same deal with a sicky piggy? Should I be thinking about taking temps and obs regularly to acclimatise myself to what is normal for a pig? With a horse I recognise laboured/quickened breathing pulse etc..I just know by looking if somthing isn't quite right, not sure I would have any idea with a pig tho.
Feeling a bit inadequate now..do we know enough to take on two babes? We got a few weeks, I can read up
