Excess Caecs.. :/ Question, Post #20

I've had a thought, and i've picked up the bag of hay from the farmer man :D

Could 'off' dried bramble leaves cause this do you think?

Its all coinciding with using the dried brambles, i had 6 bags full of them, and if i think about it, i *think* this may started when i changed bags. Do dried brambles go 'bad' even though they look 'okay' ? They are very dry and wrinkled, but still quite green coloured. I'll cut them out for a few days if the hay doesn't make any difference after ~1week or so.

Just throwing ideas out there - hay change occurs tonight when i change litter trays.

Thats very kind of you thumps_ :love: If the hay doesnt make any difference, i may take both yourself and Sky up on the offer :)

Thanks everyone so far!

This is why i love RU.
 
My brambles are still ok. I've found with Mini if I don't give her forage sometimes she's worse. So hay and pellets alone without something green for variety seems to set it off.
 
I'd be surprised if it was the bramble leaves, because they don't get mould/rusts at their most vulnerable - damp winters outside.

Is there any change in her wastes Gray?
