ravenz, u mean ya house is 2 storey one n she move all the way to first floor a?? wow. but good to hear that she's still active although she only got 3 leg. so come to think of it good thing oso.

tat's the thing i wanna know oso ts, chin can jump high right? but if they jump down from a high place will they get hurt o not one?

may i ask
is it possible for a chin to catch a cold?
one of my chin seem hacing cold. he keep on rubbing his nose. n when i put him near my ear i can actually hear smth like when human is catching cold those kind of nose blocking sound.
what should i do?

am feeding him pro optimum pellet.
i tried feeding him pellet soak in water but he push away. some more the syringe is too small to push out the soak pellet. think the mouth not big enuf i'll try modify it abit cos cant find any bigger one di.

i search online n saw ppl suggest feeding it baytril. u tink it'll be ok if i feed him that?

some more his tummy is soooooo bloated now. and oso no poo no pee for today. really worried.

there's no diet change. no treats oso. only timothy hay and pellet then few days ago a bit alfafa.

i tired those dried fruits di but then he lost interest in them as well.
but good thing is he is still interested in dust bath.
i tried to feed him the oxbow crictical care diluted in water n tryign to massage his tummy after that. hope he'll get better.
if u happen to have any other way do let me know.
so i jus put pellet in water n then feed him the water only ya.

hi all

the sick chin just passed away this noon. think he's waiting for me to be back from work. when i hug him out from the cage he give out his last struggle and pass away in my arms :'(

i dun understand. it was so sudden. last nite he's getting better got pee. n got poo oso though his poo not normal size. very very tiny bit but better then the day before oledi. n got walk ard the cage a bit as well. bloat seem less. but this morning when i feed him he seem a bit weak n not willing to walk. then noon time when i'm bak. he's lying on the side. when i take him out he died.

dunno wat goes wrong.

ts wanna ask will the sickness spread to other chin? they are nto staying in the same cage as him but same room. though i seperate him to another room when i found out he's sick tat nite. jus afraid others might get the sickness.
