I'm a new owner and I noticed that my GP is normal today. The only thing that is not normal is his poop, I think. He's poop became a more light brown poop and it's a little wet. Some poops are also mushy. He's eating normally and drinking water. I fed him carrots yesterday and I don't know if that is the main cause of his sudden change of poop. There are also no vets available here in my place that treats hamster. Btw, I live in the Philippines. Thank you!
 
Please stop giving your piggy all fresh veg until poops go back to normal. Feed him only hay for the time being.
24 hours after poops go back to normal, you can start to gradually reintroduce fresh veg, often starting with fresh herbs is the easiest thing for their tummies to cope with.
Don’t forget, don’t feed carrots too often, they are too high in sugar for piggies to eat regularly.
