Glad to hear it. I am a bit obsessed with perfect poops

Great news!

I agree they look good to me!

A growing bun should preferably have more protein, but if she doesn’t tolerate alfalfa hay or alfalfa-based pellets, you could perhaps try feeding her a little more pellets? Too much protein can cause stomach upset and sticky poop though, so it’s a fine balance you must strike.

Readigrass is dried fresh grass and has a higher protein content than…[Read more]

I too think they look good!

Shape can vary a little bit and still be perfectly normal. I think these look good.

That’s good to hear! I’m glad it isn’t anything that will affect her quality of life.

Hey good call! I just got back from the vet with a little bit of conjunctivitis and scar tissue from the nest eye! Nothing scary she is going to live a long happy life yay.

I think she stopped eating her veggies indeed was because I was giving them too often too much for her size but she has started eating them again. Throughout bonding, both of their poops were small and dark — thi…[Read more]

No. The biting doesn’t leave injuries so I just think he’s nipping, although a little too aggressively. I saw that being one of the items you should use but wasn’t sure if it was absolutely necessary. But I may try that whenever we do our long sessions again.

Would 6% protein be enough for her for a while if she eats a lot of the hay?

Oh, I don’t consider the palm plates to be junk food as they are essentially straight fiber. 🙂 I just don’t want to go through them that fast or have them ignore their hay. I order them on Amazon in large packs and they are pretty affordable.

The snak shak is more of the junk food thing because it has some molasses in it. It’s basically…[Read more]

Thanks for your insights and suggestions, Dana! They always have their activity zone, tokihut (not a chew toy but can be chewed), a few boxes (they love a funnel made from the Casper pillow box), and the fling toys that they never touch. Currently on tap we also have a seagrass mat, a plethora of apple wood twigs (not their fave but they decide t…[Read more]
