okay, one last question - should i use KY jelly or polysporin? the KY jelly i have is water based and is meant for personal lubrication, is this safe?
i have also put a thin sheet over the top of his cage for privacy, since his igloo won't fit up there...and oddly enough, all he wants is to peek out of it! yet when he's at the bottom the cage, he only wants his igloo...strange, strange boy <3
and also, he starting to take really small treats, like a nibble of a craison here and a nibble of vitakraft dandelion drop there (his faves - and only nibbles, not anything signifigant, and only once every few days or so) and LOVES the yogurt - but still no grain or hay
we get paid on friday - should i just go ahead and try a different brand of grain altogether? right now we're using LM animal farms classic chinchilla food, as well as kaytee timothy hay - should we be using something a bit more, um, tasty - so he'll want to eat?
we're still keeping with the fine grind, and he absolutely hates it! and the antibiotics are done as of next monday. we're not sure how long to keep with the find grind before it's futile...as it is, we REALLY can't afford another vet bill
