I just noticed Thursday that Napoleon's right ear is turning chaulky white (its normally black) around the edge and it feels rough and hard. it's only the top portion of his ear right now. But since Thursday it seem to spread to the base of his ear. It also feels thicker. All I had on hand was Collidal Silver. I'm going to see if that will take care of it. If not, should I try a antifungal cream? There dosent seem to be any other areas affected I did a full look-over (he didnt like it very much lol)

A picture of the ear would help us as it could be many things causing the flaking/fungus.

Finally some pictures of Napoleon's icky ear  It seems to be getting better since putting on the Colidal Silver. I am guessing it's a fungus. Any input of what it may be? |

I looks like it could be a fungus, but that's just my opinion, I've never had a piggy with a fungus (knock on wood!)
Maybe look in the skin/coat problems board, it might have pics of other piggies with fungus problems and you can see if it looks the same?
