It's a very small barespot. Except for a little scratching here and there which is pretty normal for him, he seems just fine. Any suggestions. It is hard to inspect his whole bod, even though I finally managed to trim his toenails...When should I consult the vet? Love to all,, Wendy

They all have a little bare bit on the inside of the foot, its where a thumb would have been (if they had them).

Thanks--I sort of half guessed that today when I finally got a look at both paws. I really appreciate your feedback ---being a new piggymom and all.
Regards,
Wendy

I agree with Doris, it's probably his throw-back spot.  Some of my pigs enjoy having this tickled for some reason.  |

I think this is to do with them bathing, because if you watch them they get the fluids from their eyes and use the inside of the paws to wash themselves, perhaps its a little flannel? ;D
