Is this rash anything to worry about or is this with being overweight?

Is there something in her ear?

She looks like a cuddly teddy very pretty little lady xx

It looks like she's lost an area of her quills there rather than a rash. Does she have dry skin? It's possible it's a fungal infection. Does she have any yellowy build up of skin on her face at all? The ears look waxy to me. Sometimes wax can build up like that rather than fall out naturally, but it can also be a sign of fungal infection too. I'm assuming she wont let you near her ears? The wax is a nice light colour though from what I can see. I read somewhere that dark coloured wax, almost black can be a problem, but this doesn't look anything to worry about.

If you wanted to try treating her for fungus without a trip to the vets, you can use Beaphar Anti Ringworm spray. You can pick it up from Pets at home for about £8. I've used it on 2 of my hoggies and had no problems and it helped a treat! x x

Wow if she was a chocolate bar she would be  a yorkie such a gorjus chunk of hoggie her brown nose is lovely xx if area looks sore or dry could you use humilin spray its really helped Errol x

Do you mean Humilac Sue? Humilac spray is amazing stuff for dry skin! I put a sample in my care packs. It really helped Jinx when she was quilling. Her relief was instant. It all depends if it's fungal or not.

She's gorgeous Caz!

She does have really dry skin,I can't get near her ears  xx her face is fluffy she's proper gorgeous,she makes squeaky noises like she's talking xx

I think the skin will be down to poor diet as well - she was fed Spikes food which is a no go really, get her on a better diet and it will help the skin and she has always had the bald patch according to her previous owner, if it was fungal I would expect to see more of it over her body - when she settles just try and clean the ear and see how she goes - she is quiet overweight and hopefully getting on her wheel will help with that and a better diet will help with the skin being dry.

She needs to settle in before throwing too much at her - the humilac spray is a good thing to try that isn't too intrusive .

I think that when she settles, gets her upgraded home and learns to use a playpen and wheel a lot of things will sort themselves out.

Yeah bless her just going to get her into routine she is a sweet girl xx

Ah, yeah - I'd forgotten about the Spikes. Helens right about diet so it is most likely the Spikes that has caused it. Can I put it down to baby brain seeing as I have a hoglet, lol ?!!! x x

Lol Mel, she is using her wheel plenty of wee and poop on that this morning think she was racing Oscar xx

I bet she is so chuffed having a wheel - go Poppy you will soon be a slimline choggie xx So pleased for her and for you chuck x

I'm a very proud hog mummy of 2 and they are both very clean hogs as well she's taken a liking to the large fleece pouch and I have noticed she has eaten a little which is fab xx

Yay 4ft mussel viv is ordered should be here tues or wed xx

She will enjoy the bigger space Caz - she has landed on her lucky hoggie feet x

She's having butterfly's and flowers in her viv which I have ordered,she gets the best from now on and it will be nice seeing her progress xx

I shall look forward to updates and just keep hold of that little viv - you never know if I may have to call on you again and although small, believe me, it is better than some of the things I have had rescues handed over in xx
