I have a poo-related question. Its kind of in response to this thread: http://www.chins-n-hedgies.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21381
Cleo's poos have never gotten much bigger, though she is finally gaining weight (38 grams in the last two months!) and eats a ton. She eats more pellets than my other two and literally attacks her hay. They are all on Oxbow Chinchilla Deluxe, mostly Oxbow Timmy hay with some others thrown in for variety. She poos often, so the amount of poo isn't really a problem, just the size. I know different chins can poo different sizes. Hers may always be smaller. But at times they do look harder and dry.
I think her issue is drinking. She does not drink very much at all, compared to the other two. Is there anything I can do to encourage this? I tried the raisin trick once upon a time and it didn't interest her.
