Lola went onto pellets at the age of 1 year, slowly changed over from Wagg mix oops
Lola's first bout of statis was February 2010 she was very ill, wouldn't move, she was dehydrated, no pooping ect. After 4 weeks she was back to her normal self and back onto eating her hay and pellets.
Her second bout was June 2010 again she was very ill and wouldn't move, eat or drink, wouldn't poop she went straight to the vet again and we came home with critical care food.
Her third bout was September 2010 she wasn't too bad this time, I had caught the signs and kept her going, she was soon eating again.
September to the end of December she was on a pellet free diet, she hit 2.2kg in January and I discussed with the vet it would be best for her to be slowly put back on pellets.
Her fourth bout was this year January 2011 right on the bank holiday, she wasn't eating, refused to drink, she wouldn't wake up and I couldn't see her fighting, took her to the vet and arranged a dental just in case her back teeth were hurting her, she had very small spurs but no redness of her mouth.
After January I cut all pellets out of her diet and all of the other buns diets, poops became bigger and better colour, this is due to more hay intake.
Last week she got into a bag of pellets I had put in the bin, she hadn't had many but I didn't think anything of it over the next day or two her gut slowed down, her poops became smaller and she was very quiet.
All of these bouts of stasis seem :?: to come from the pellets.
Has anyone else had this problem with pellets and linked them to stasis?
