So I now have Pebbles eating dry pellets after a week, having had dental. He doesn't eat hay (hasn't done in 3 years apart from odd nibble) and unlikely to eat hay, so he needs constant access to pellets 24/7 to maintain his gut movement and keep his molars down for as long as possible.
However, I'm having to feed him seperately several times a day, and keeping him seperate from his wifey bun during the night seems to be making them unsettled (constant humping from Pebbles when he is with Poppy) and a bit of territorial lunging from Poppy...aimed at me, not at Pebbles :roll:
So, what do I do? Continue to remove Pebbles to allow him to feed seperately ( Poppy would nick all the food before he gets to eat his share), or do I keep Pebbles & Poppy together and just provide them both with a huge bowl of pellets, so Pebbles has constant supply to graze on day and night?
At the moment Poppy has 6g ss pellets a day as treats (and a few sticks of vetcare plus digestive formula ) ...Pebbles has 60-100g of SS pellets.
Thoughts, ideas & suggestions welcome...apart from how to get pebbles to eat more hay...believe me, I've tried everything possible :lol::lol:
