So i have this posted in another place, but i thought id open a new one with just one question.
some people think she may be "quilling"
But the only place i see smallish quills is on her head.
and she has a slight bald spot. but she has had this since i got her. but when she is all quilled up and in a ball you cannot see it just when they lay flat,
I had her out tonight on the floor and she just tried to run to the darkest spots in the room,
what do you think
also today she is having "green poops"
could this be caused from the stress of quilling?
and what if the temp. isnt right? could that be causing her to act this way
 
The bald spot on her head is called a reverse mohawk. It is normal. It actually helps them cover their eyes without poking them when curling up into a ball.

Green stool can be caused by a few things. Stress (change in environment), change in diet, or illness. Often the green stool goes away within a day or two. If it goes on for any longer, or becomes loose, its time for a vet visit as there could be another underlying cause.
