Hi everyone
I have a British Giant who has developed (as well as a tooth root abcess ) very sore patches on her feet - both at the hock and in the middle of the foot. Yesterday whilst I was grooming her I saw that in places the skin has cracked so that it had bled
The thing is, how can I prevent this? She lives in a permanent run with her mate. The run is about 10' x 10' (or something like that) and their hutch is 6' x 2'. As far as I can tell she only ever goes in the hutch to eat their food - she tends to live under it instead :roll:
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm a bit stuck :? I'm going to put a large tray under the hutch for bedding to go in, but other than that...?
