why has sorrel suddenly started eating her normal everyday poo as well as the ones she's meant to eat? :shock: i dont know if shes dooing it regularly but i saw her do it a couple of times last night. is it a sign of something?
 
Tarquin had a few days where he ate his normal poos a few weeks ago. I couldn't work out why and as he was eating the same as normal, and still is and he's stopped, I just left him to it. He rolled them round first as if sussing them out and then in they went and they were gone :shock: :shock:

:)
 
My boy Bob often eats his normal poos..... he eats a good varied diet with unlimited hay, but sometimes I'll bend down to pick up a stray poo off the florr and he'll and eat it before I can get to it! Other times I'll spot him munching from his litter tray or see a small cluster of poos, then they mysteriously disappear.... I havent got a clue why, but I guess he knows what he's doing!:?
:lol:
 
I've only seen Evo do it once. He picked it up off the floor, and looked really guilty after he'd done it. :lol:
 
Mine do it sometimes too, not sure why! They have unlimited hay, so plenty of fibre. Maybe they just taste good :mrgreen:
 
MIne do it too from timeto time... usually find a crumbled half munched one here and there.. I wondered if they did it to remove the 'territory' from the other bun too?? who knows, whatever works for them :shock:
