Taz has been with us for a couple of weeks now (thread here in case you want to know his background). He was very underweight when we brought him home and, despite eating really well, we checked his weight tonight and he doesn't seem to have put any on. The scales might be slightly out so we need to double check on the vet's scales too but I thought I would have seen an improvement by now.
Erm, anything relevant I can think of: His bloods were checked when he came in to the vets 2.5 weeks ago with nothing abnormal detected, he's being treated for suspected EC and mites. He eats lots of hay and we've also been giving him Excel junior pellets and some porridge to try to build him up, plus some greens. His poops are massive and golden.
We're going to see the vet on Monday anyway for another check up on his progress so will add the weight issues to my list of things to discuss with him but just wondered if anybody had any ideas in the meantime......
TIA
