Hi all,
So our 3 new buns, Thor, Skye and Loki have been settling in .
Skye and Loki are now fully transitioned to Science Selective and after some initial soft poop from Skye, are both doing really well. They are also enjoying a selection of vegetables without issue.
However Thor is not so good. His digestive system didn't appear to cope with the changes and although there were lots of normal poos, theres also been squishy ones, usually 2 or 3 small piles morning and evening. They don't look like cecotropes, more like soft regular poos with the consistency of play doh :?
On the vets advice, we cut out the pellets and have just been giving him hay, but I'm still finding them.
-Could it have anything to do with the Ivermectin for his mites? Although he's only had one vial so far.
-Or might it be stress from living in close proximity to Loki?
-Should I put him back on his muesli type food he arrived with?
As a whole he definitely seems the least 'happy' although it could just be his personality. I mean he seems fine in himself, but just different to the others and not keen on being fussed. He's also very unreliable with his litter tray and will often wee in the middle of the floor, weirdly usually when I've been in the shed once, gone to get something and come back, is he scared of me?
Thanks in advance x
