Junior Guinea Pig
I have noticed a slight difference in fifi after taking the baytrill. She is on pro c probiotic and poop soup for those who don't know.
I don't know whether I being overly concerned as these have been very slight and gradual.
She does sleep in the day as most piggies do, but this morning she is sitting/lying about more.
Sometimes especialy this morning Ive noticed she be sitting with front legs up on front paws and her back legs sitting down, she do this for short prolonged moments.
I know in my mind she is a little more active then this. She just seems a bit fed up.
I've been checking her poops also, there seems to be less in the cage then normal,
but she is producing them as I have seen consuming her own.
Its just I'm not totally sure whether she is pooping the other (if you know what I mean). I did separare flash and her there was some left but not as many.
She seems to be still intersested in food, she will come for new hay when that is put out, eats her veggie no problem and pellets.
Its just regarding the food she seems a tiny bit less interested, but I dont know whether I'm worrying to much or noticing it more.
What steps can I take if loss of appetite and the possible constipation escalate into something slihgtly more serious?
Also I'm putting 1/16 of a scoop of probiotic into 10ml of water and syringe feeding 1ml of this to her, is this enough?
The poop soup is about 4 fresh poops from flash to a bit of water I also syringe 1ml of this is this enough?
Her weight is also stable
