Health / Re: More poo concerns

« on: October 12, 2006, 11:12:13 AM »

I've identified that it's Charlotte whose having the problems. They loved the shredded wheat! (Thanks for the suggestion ) That has helped get her poos back to normal size but they're still a little wet.

I have a brand new water bottle to give them so we'll see if that makes a difference.

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll be keeping a close eye on her.

Health / More poo concerns

« on: October 11, 2006, 08:36:23 PM »

One of my little girls (LINKY) has recently been pooping larger, wetter poops than normal. I'm still trying to figure out exactly which one of them is having the problem but I'm a bit concerned. Both show no other worrisome symptoms. They seem happy, energetic, nice coats etc.

There hasn't been any change in their diet other than a new bag of hay which they don't seem to be eating as much of as the last bag. They both seem to be eating the same amount of their other food.

After we noticed the change in their poops, we stopped giving them daily treats to see if things would improve. It's been a few days now and they haven't gotten back to normal. I've also taken out the fresh hay (leaving them with just pellets and hay cubes) to see if that's the problem.

Is it time for a visit to the vet for one or both of them? Anything else we should try?

Q & A / Is leather ok for Chins to chew?

« on: May 30, 2006, 04:42:53 PM »

Hello. My girlfriend and I just got our first chins (two little girls/sisters). They 2 months old now and are completely awesome.

We just purchased a hanging bird toy with lots of wood blocks held on by both rope and leather cord. I'm concerned about putting it in the cage for fear that the leather might be bad for them. Do we have cause to be concerned?
