Mama Doe
Hi,
Just got our new addition to the family, Falon, on Friday. She is an 11 week old French lop doe, who is, as I type this, grooming D'Argo's head
She seems to be settling okay but I notice that she has done a poo which is a bit soft and a little stringy - there are a cluster of three stuck together. I wonder if this is down to her new experience of coming to live with us, coupled with the change in diet (we have been mixing in 50% of her food with 50% of ours?) She has been going out in the pen but the grass is extremely short at the moment so she hasn't been into the main garden except once briefly when she charged in and I wasn't quick enough so she may have eaten some richer grass then.
I have been keeping her off veggies etc until she is a bit older. They aren't runny, just a bit sticky.
I was planning to take her to the vets tomorrow pm for quick once over anyway as her front feet stick out in an interesting way (looks like a ballet dancer standing in pose). I'm not sure if this is normal for a French Lop?
I will post a link to some photos of the buns so you can see if interested.
Thanks in advance.
