Sorry, I thought I had responded to this earlier but I guess it didn't send! Bell was fine the day after my last post (she had a final injection the day before) and showed no signs of being sick. She's been healthy since. None of our other pigs have been ill. Thanks for your advice!

Seems like dippity pig it was. :

I'm glad she is doing better! Dippity pig without the rash and rear end mobility issues is about the most "fun" thing that can be wrong with a pig. It is however the easier to treat just wait 2-4 days.

Now that you know she is susceptible to it you will know for next time. (If she is a breeder) Keep an eye on her piglets as they could also end up with problems with dippity.
