Help- Does my Pig have Mange?

[jelly450]

Hello,

I thought my Amelia just had dry skin. I have been putting baby oil on her back, but I am beginning to think she has mange. :eek:

I have enclosed a picture of her back.

Please let me know, if you have any insights as to what she may have.

I don't have a pig, but that looks like mange from what I can see. A vet visit would be good.

Yes that appears to be mange mites, My pig had them last year and I will tell you after treatment her coat is at least 3 inches long Read more here how to treat http://www.pigs4ever.com/PotBelliedPigInfo/mange_mites.htm
