I previously had a wire ramped and floored cage for my mom and baby chin. I recently installed wood shelves and they seem much more comfortable.
I noticed before I put the shelving in that after I let the chins out for free time, the mom would lay down on her side (I've read this is sometimes unusual)
she seemed to be contently resting. but then i noticed her feet were all red and chapped looking. Her long "foot pads" are hairless and they look quite painfully white and red and scaly.
I havent noticed the baby ever laying down and ive never noticed her feet being chapped.
could this be because of the wire floors I had them in for a few months? or is this normal....
are there any creams I could put on her feet to relieve the 'pain?'
thanks for any info
