My vet reccomended I start Wiley on a vitamin C supplement since she has so far only eaten hay, pellets, lettuce and a small amount of carrot. Whinny goes nuts for red pepper but Wiley doesnt even seem interested in a lot of veggies. The vet reccomended to me Oxbow daily C tablets. Has anyone tried this or a similar one? I'm worried that I will get it and Wiley wont eat it!
Thanks :)
 
i havent gotten any responses on this but i still need help! i got the tablets the vet suggested and tried giving it to both piggies, no one will touch them! any ideas on getting them to eat it?

You could crush the tablet and mix with a little bit of water ( doesn't need to be more than a ml) and syringe it to them.
Try dipping the end of the syringe in their favourite food sometimes that will encourage them to take it x
 
thanks i will try getting a little syringe and dissolving them! i tried crushing them and sprinkling it on lettuce and they just shake it off and eat the lettuce :p
