I used to have guineas when I was little, and I have been lonely in my new apartment so I went and got a guinea who I named Daisy
I love my Daisy pig, but I am kind of worried about her. Every time I take her out she gets really hot... Like would be feverish if she was a person. She is normally sitting there making noises while eating the lettuce I offer her... Tonight she was hot and when I put her back she sneezed once. She has also been resting more today than usual. I haven't heard her sneeze any other time and while I had her out I checked her nose and it was clear.
I might just be making a mountain out of a molehill, but am I stressing my pig into being sick? Should I just leave her go for a day or so? I have been taking her out for at least 10 mins every day to try and get her used to being handled.
I am not sure how I should be treating my pig as animal keeping as a child is different...
Can some experienced pig owners let me know what I should be doing for her and what I should look for illness-wise? Or other things that should cause worry.
Thanks!
Edit: I just refilled her timothy hay and she popcorned a few times I love jumping baby pigs.
Oh btw, here is a picture of her She is just a little pig!
