I’m worried about a couple of things though. The previous owner said they drank happily out of the dropper bottles that sit on the side of the cage. However, the water level in mine hasn’t gone down - and I’ve checked to make sure it works. Do they drink much, or should I be worried they arn’t getting enough water?
Second, they wont eat pellets or hay. Again the owner said they did at their place.
But, they absolutly adore fress grass and vegetables. The grass is from my backyard and has no spray in the area. Our veggies are organic from the garden too (and washed anyway, mostly for dirt.)
Should I just feed them what they like? Or what should I do? I’d call the vets, but I’m in Nelson, New Zealand - and nobody specialises in small animals here. It’d cost a fortune to make a long distance call to ask about them.
