Ruby's poo has gotten a little bigger in the last week. It's not squishy or anything, just bigger. She has also been eating ALOT more food lately. She probably eats about 6 tablespoons a day. She also eats aloy of hay too. Is this normal? She also drinks an 8 oz water bottle in 2 days
 
Really? No one knows whethere this is normal? I dont thinks shes growing because shes a little over a year old
 
That could be why his poops have gotten bigger, a change of food, even gradually done, can cause changes. Some feeds simply cause a bigger poo.
 
My boys poo gets bigger if they have a lot of hay. If they run out I don't refill it one night, the next day it is a bit smaller.
 
Its normal. Some chins just have bigger poops. Gizmos range in size from now and then. Probably has something to with the high fiber intake w/ the exta hay hes eating. Just keep an eye on him. As long as his poos do not decrease greatly in size or become squishy, i'd say hes just a big pooper :)
