So my chinchilla has had soft poops for as long as I can remember..
Never liquid-y or like diarrhea, but soft enough that after a while, his ledges have smushed poop on them (from him stepping on it)
It a real pain in my *** to clean
I'm also worried that maybe he's got some digestive issues?
His poops have been this way the entire time I've owned him (about 9-10 months now)
I've only noticed that his poops were different after seeing my friend's chinchillas & their poops
So after googling, I found that "unsweetened shredded wheat" was helpful for soft poops, so I went out and bought him Post's unsweetened shredded wheat
Perhaps I got the wrong brand/type, but nothing has changed even with the shredded wheat:hmm:
When he had ringworm, he was seen by 2 vets and both said he was healthy & energetic
Is this something I need to be worrying about?
