I just spoke to my vet and she told me that she has some feelings on why gizmo has been having digestive problems the past month or so. She thinks it may be something dietary. She said that I may be giving him too many pellets. Usually i just fill the dish and let him eat whenever. She told me to only feed him about a teaspoon of pellets daily. But if he starts loosing weight than to increase it to a tablespoon. Is this right?? Also to give him lots of hay but not too much that he wont eat it all in one sitting.. The poor thing will think im trying to starve him.
Also, she told me to start giving him leafy greens, such as the lettuce in a sping mix and the tops greens of carrots every day so he can get the proper nutrient. He doesnt really like them much. I was told alot of greens can make them bloated. ....any suggestions ? how much pellets and hay do you feed daily?
