Not Eating Uri and not eating

Are you giving a probiotic with the antibiotic?

Im not giving a probiotic. I wasn't sure if it would affect the antibiotic.... What kind of probiotic would I get for him? Just stuff from a health food store? Liquid capsules?

During Korra's treatment for her "URI" I used Bene-Bac. Guinea Lynx has useful information on probiotics https://www.guinealynx.info/probiotics.html

I believe your issue may likely be because he isn't getting any probiotic.

Thanks. I will go to the health food store tomorrow and hopefully they have something similar.

Be sure to keep hand feeding him. He can do down hill very quickly if he doesn't have constant food in his system.

So I got some bene bac today only given him two doses but he still has no appetite.... Should it have kicked in by now?

please check out this link on hand feeding there are also recipes for hand feeding on this site.

Ya I've been hand feeding him critical care. He shows no interest in his veggies or his pellets even after I've given him 3 doses of benebac
. Is this normal?

Yes, this is normal. Some pigs just stop eating when on an antibiotic. You should be feeding him three tablespoons dry critical care per 1kilo of normal weight. You may also consider asking your vet about other medications that can help with stomach upset or motility, if he is showing absolutely no interest in food. This may not make him eat on his own, but may help him take the hand feelings better. In my experience, I have never been able to give an antibiotic without also hand feeding. Be sure to weigh him daily at the same time. This will help you to know if you are feeding him enough, and you can adjust that amount if he is losing weight. I hope that Charlie is feeling better soon!

Ok I wasn't sure if hand feeding the whole time was a good thing or not. He will pick at some veg or hay but not much. The poops are very soft and are becoming less shaped. Is this just because he is eating basically mashed food? Thanks for replying.
