My girlfriends Chins have been peeing in their food a lot lately. She says that she finds the female sitting on the food bowl often and shortly there after she finds a food dish with urine soaked food. :vomit:
No it's not the water dripping into the bowl, the bottle is on another wall. And no it is not old food, sometimes she finds the urine soaked food the same day she gives it to them. But it is a new kind of food. We used to feed out critters the typical Chinchilla food, like Kaytee & Fiesta, you get at PetSmart. But thanks to the good advice from people on C&H and NWI Chinchillas we have all our Chins eating Mazuri pellets.
Is this a way of saying "we don't like this food"?
My girlfriend has moved the food dish to another spot in the cage. But I don't see how the location of the dish would make a difference; because it has been in the same spot in the cage for several years. (and they've only recently been peeing in the bowl)
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give. :thumbsup:
