Hi
I wish my first thread on here was more cheery but could do with some advice please. We got new babies on Tuesday afternoon (approx 9 weeks), one is a lot more confident & seems to have taken to life with us quicker. So much so he’s been gobbling up food and to be honest I think I’ve foolishly given them too much veg & fruit in my giddiness. He’s now got runny poo, I noticed this morning when I picked him up - it came out. And his evening again, just a tiny bit came out. I’ve checked the cage and there’s a lot of normal poo’s but there was a patch which looked like it was where runny poo had been done.
I feel awful and also worried :-(
So today all I’ve left are pellets and hay.
It’s hard to tell if he’s eating as they hide a lot but I’ll try doing some spying this evening.
I guess my question is - do you think I should be worried? How long would you leave it before taking him to a vet?
I’m so annoyed with myself as I think I’ve probably given too much new stuff too soon :-(
Thanks and look forward to some replies!
Ps last night I offered broccoli, coriander, cucumber, celery & a strawberry each
