Righto, after Uncle A's really bad day on Wednesday where he stopped eating anything but a few greens and stopped pooping I have begun to wonder if Oxbow Pellets could have been the culprit rather than an exacerbation of his oral tumour :? I had started to feed him Oxbow rather than SS as the pellets are tiny and he hardly has any molar teeth left. However, I have noticed that when hydrated the oxbow pellets 'swell up' to about 4 times the amount :shock:
So do you think it was the swelling up of the Oxbow Pellets once in Uncle A's tum that made him feel so uncomfortable :? He did not get bloaty and his tum was not obviously tender but eventually became quite gassy .
I did do the change from SS to Oxbow over a few days, maybe more quickly than I'd normally do Perhaps his old guts could not cope once the Oxbow pellets 'swelled up' :?
Two other Buns, Zack and Lara also had tummy ache after Oxbow :?
Anyways, Uncle A wont be having any more of them. He is happy with the naff cereal mix and at this stage what Bertie wants Bertie gets (EXCEPT OXBOW!!)
