So we are coming up on almost three weeks since Volcano has pooped. I'm getting a little concerned. He isn't showing any signs of distress, he's still eating, and he's running around the room as we speak. At what point should I get worried and seek medical aid?
Feed him some canned pumpkin - add a drop of olive oil make sure hes hydrated ---- its not uncommon for them not to poop for long periods of time --- but the canned pumpkin is a natural laxative it should make him poop
The soft foods may help him out. You can also try some warm baths a few times per week
& let him swim around too just for exercise. A lot of times that helps get their system moving
things through also.
So last night I went to get the canned pumpkin because he still had not gone. I get home from the store and there in the middle of his enclosure was a big old smelly poop :roll:
It's like he knew what I went to the store for.
