Hi Everyone
One of my chinchillas (Lucky) has had conjunctivitis for a week and has been treated on Tiacil drops 4 times a day. It hasn't helped.
Now i've noticed he has droppings with a hole through the middle and a short string of mucus on the end of it.
Has anyone had anything like this before in their chinchilla? He's going to the vets in two hours. I couldn't get an appointment with the chin specialist as shes on holiday! and I wanted to get him checked asap so I hope the vet has some chinchilla knowledge.
His symptoms are:
One sticky eye with hard yellow discharge dry and white discharge runny
Holey droppings
Droppings covered in see-through mucus
He is:
700g weight (hes always been this way so i don't think hes bloated)
3 years of age
Thank you anyone who can help!
