Hi All,
I have three chins housed in the same cage (Chupa, M, neutered,6.5 years; Ewok, F, 6.5 years; Gordita, F, 5.5 years). They have oxbow pellets and timothy hay, which is supplemented with the occasional sunflower seed or raisin.
Roughly every 7-8 weeks for the past year or so, the older female Ewok has shown signs of bloat along with small feces. I have taken her to the vet, who advised that I give her gas drops (GasX) and a laxative (Laxatone) when she starts exhibiting symptoms. With treatment she seems to bounce right back a day or so later.
Just wanted to see if anyone else on here has had this issue, or knows what could be causing these symptoms so cyclicly (hormones, fur cycles, etc.?).
