Sometimes in the fall horses get little white eggs stuck to the hairs on the inside of their legs and bellies. They are fly eggs. They can't be pulled off using your fingers, they stick fast. Little teeny things, almost oblong. Does that sound right?
Clippers takes the hair off, put the hair in the bin, don't compost it.

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.
