Hi all...just wanted to check...Ive found a few of the ceacs (sp) poops the last few days and said to OH we must not give them too much nuggets .....they need to eat their poops...
OH said...surely if they leave their poops it means they are getting enough nutrients etc anyways and its ok? They would only need to eat them if they were not getting the nutrients form elsewhere.
I was abit stumped as I said no - they will get them from their poops...but couldnt explain that if they werent eating them & were getting them from their nuggets..it was not ok.:?
I also said that it "ups" the chances of flystrike if they have messy poops about that they havent eaten.
Can someone clever clarify this so I can answer OH with abit more believable knowledge...
thankyou!
