piggl
Forum Donator 2024/25
Hi, yesterday i bonded two guinea pigs together and i thought i'd give them a treat to celebrate. So i walked up a hill near my place and picked dandelions (since i dont know much about forage) and washed them then put them in their cage. I watched as my older guinea pig scoffed the lot not leaving any for my new piggie (who doesn't like them anyway)
I totally forgot he hadn't had any dandelions in ages and i think hes feeling the effect today. He wasn't really wanting any veg and looks uncomfortable while pooping. I think hes constipated and he was a bit hunched up a few seconds before pooping. I came back to check on him later on and he was eating hay fine and he had some cucumber.
I feel terrible and i'll never feed too much at one time ever again ( i should have remembered
).
I was wondering if this would hopefully pass by with a reduce of vegetables and plenty water and hay. Is there anything i can do to help him or should i just watch him over the next few days and seeing if he goes back to normal? xx
