Hi
I was wondering about these white marks in the hutch and the litter tray. It only appears where they wee.
On paper:
On hutch floor:
In the litter tray:
PLEASE DO NOT THINK THAT THEY ARE IN UNCLEAN CONDITIONS. I CLEAN THEIR BEDROOM OUT ONCE A DAY AND THEIR LITTER TRAY. THEIR MAIN AREA, WHERE THEY DO NOT WEE AND POO IS FULLY CLEANED OUT ONCE A WEEK.
I disinfect the whole hutch once a week, but it does not get rid of the stains. I was wondering if it's calcium buildup or limescale, as we have a lot of limescale in this area, I live in Greater London; the stains on the hutch floor and litter tray have built up over time, well, 5 weeks. The marks on the paper really shocked me because they only had access to it for about 9 hours last night and to create that amount of white mark is worrying. They seem healthy and happy within themselves. No problems with their bum.
Their diet is:
4 handfuls of SS pellets(2 in morning, 2 in evening)
Trying with different veg(fed spring greens, celery)
Meadow hay and Timothy Hay
Access to grass on clay soils for about 4-6 hours a day, every day.
Please help. Thanks
