I'm probably worrying too much but I wanted to ask a quick poo question.
Cheech's poos were a little soft about a week or two ago so I gave him a little burnt toast and stopped the dried fruit and he seemed to sort out, but at the same time I have been changing his hay to what I feel is a better brand and although I've been doing this slowly I have noticed a change in his poos. They are slightly pointed at the end and I know this can be a sign of constipation.
I made him a new toy to introduce the new hay: I filled an empty cardboard box with his old hay mixed with a little of his new hay and put three round chinchilla sized holes in it and he loved it. He played with it non stop, eating the hay and eventually making enough room in it so he could crawl inside and sleep in there. He has eaten a lot more hay than he usually does and I think he's eaten a little less pellets than usual too. I've taken the toy out and he's back to his normal hay eating habits but I wanted to know how exactly to identify that his poos are pointy enough to constitute him having constipation.
