Hi,we are just looking for some advice. We have had our piggy for about 4 months and sometimes she will run round squealing and when we pick her up she squeals like she is in pain especially when we touch her lower back. Most of the time she is fine and she is eating fine. A friend said that it could just be a little tick or something simple. She doesn't do it all of the time, only sometimes. Any advice would be welcome. Many thanks.

I agree with the above, if you're in doubt then you should visit a good piggy vet. Is there a chance that your pig is just making normal piggy sounds? here is a page that gives some examples you can listen to. Also, how are you piggy's coat and skin? Any redness or flaky patches? Any dry skin or dandruff? Sometimes a skin issue can be very painful for pigs and makes them not like being touched.
