I finally got my two hogs (maybe 3 months old) to let me scratch their
backs today and one on his belly. I noticed that both of them have
something on the hairs behind their front legs. Almost in the "arm
pit".

It looks like eggs attached to the hairs. I've looked online, but
didn't really find much. Maybe hog lice eggs?

Anyone know what it might be and how I can treat it naturally. I'm
going to see if the hogs will let me brush them off, not sure we are
that close yet.
