If the skin is not raised or different in some other way, I would not be concerned with the color change.

Do you think it could be a "liver spot?" He has a very, very good look about him. His eyes are alert and happy. I'm very excited he's doing so well. He's a lucky old man to have found such a loving home and wonderful vet.

Henry looks wonderful -- he is very handsome. :)

Sakura has some pigment changes on either side of her nose. She is 2.5 years old now.

The skin isn't raised. It is just a change in pigment, and as you can see, it matches the little spots on his tummy side. Well, good. I'm glad it's not something to worry about!

Doodle has developed a little black patches on either side of her nose, too. They look very similar to Henry's. I wonder if this might be a fairly common occurrence as pigs age.

I just wanted to report that Henry has continued to gain weight. He's perky and happy and marking his territory.

We've noticed that between 8 and 12 hours of taking his actigall, he kicks out some sludge. Other than that, he seems to be doing well. We've been stepping him down on the vetprofen, so he should be off of that soon.

Henry has continued to eat and run and play--and he's gained another 30 grams in the past three days. :)
