I didn't go to see Bramble last night because I didn't feel very well. My parents have been left with pretty strict instructions on what to do with her (i.e. bottom check, food, water, etc) for days that I can't make it.
I went tonight to sort her out, and as soon as I picked her up I noticed she had a great mass of poo on her bottom and smelt terrible :x . She was very good while I got her all cleaned up, but I am worried about her now. She is off to the vets tomorrow evening for myxi and VHD jabs, so I will mention it to the vet.
She's only 11 weeks old and didn't seem to get many greens where I bought her so I am introducing them gradually. She has been having a few spinach leaves, a half a carrot cut into pieces and a few small slices of apple with the pips removed. She gets a small handful of mix, which was what the store recommended. Usually all the greens are eaten, but she often leaves a little bit of mix. She also gets a huge amount of hay in her "toilet" area while I'm waiting to get a hay rack, gets fresh water every day and gets time in the run every night (although when we get time to build a bigger run, the current one will be attached to the hutch so she has permanent access to it). I've had her for almost two weeks and her bottom has always been perfectly clean before tonight. Her droppings have seemed fine previously. I think my parents think I fuss too much :roll: .
Is there anything I should be doing differently?
