Guinea Pig Skin Problem
This is the first guinea pig we've ever had, so I'm still learning. When we first got her she got scabs in her fur. When we switched to a different bedding. All the scabs went away, but now she has horribly dry skin on her back. It really bothers her. If we itch it for her she goes into a spasm and freezes up. It's got to be painful. I took her to the vet, but we live in a rural area, and I don't think she sees many guinea pigs. She thought maybe mites, but we've been giving her this medicine for 3 weeks now, and there has been no change.:sad: Am I doing something wrong? I don't know if it could be an allergy or something. What other things do you think I should try?
