HELP! Loria has soft poop...?

[***WheekyPig78***]

First of all... sorry I wasn't able to get on here for a month.

Anyway, my favorite piggy, Loria, is starting to poop weird. Her poop is soft and mushy, normal color, no blood or anything, and it is a little creamy. She has no problems that I now of, as she poops without squeaking. She pees normally, every 20-40 minutes. Her pee seems fine, creamy opaque yellow. Loria is behaving as she always does, she will wheek and run around for her veggies. She will rest occasionaly but otherwise very happy. She enjoys cuddling and she eats just fine. I think what is causing the poop is that I am giving her too much lettuce. I feed them bell peppers in the morning and a bit of lettuce, carrots, and sometimes apples, but I am sometimes tired at night. I give Loria and the babies 1 and a half heads of romaine lettuce. I give Luxio the other half. They eat it all. My mom also hasn't gotten Timothy hay in about a week (thanks, mom. ) . Is this what is happening? Or is it stress or something else? Thanks!




Can you help me get better? Attachment Deleted  



Thanks, guys. I'm counting on you.

The soft stools might be caused by too many greens in the diet. I'm more concerned that they've been without hay for so long as they need unlimited hay at all times for their digestive tract health. Hay is probably the single most important part of their diet!

I know, I am so angry at my mom.

I immediately went and bought some hay and gave them a lot. Their poop is a little bit better. Thanks for your input.

They can't go without hay. You should have an emergency stock just in case you can't get to the shop for a while.

Normally soft poops are caused by having a bit too much veg, but in this case I would definitely say it was a lack of hay.

Yes thank you I have given them hay and it is normal now
