Can anyone suggest something to help this, apart from a expensive trip to the vets as i dont have much money. Sorry if thanks sounds mean :(

thanks for any ideas
 
Is she pooping at all? Is she eating well? Is she getting plenty of water?

Constipation is different from more serious gastric conditions such as bloat, stasis or a blockage, it can be hard to tell the difference. Without having an experienced vet or rodentologist check her over and rule out bloat/stasis/blockage, you really shouldn't be trying to treat at home.

Do you qualify for help from the PDSA? If so, that will help with veterinary costs. http://www.pdsa.org.uk/eligibility.html
