I'm not sure who is leaving them, but it appears to be most of the poos in the cage when I clean up. They tend to look normal, but when I try to sweep them they immediately crumble and break apart. Is that normal? I tend to notice this more in my evening clean up than in the morning, so everything I've been sweeping up tends to have been in the cage for a few hours.
I just want to make sure that there isn't something to be massively concerned by, OR that if it's a diet issue I can correct it. Their weights appear to be ok. Phantasm is about 9 months at 902g (+4 from last week), Harley is about 6 months at 748g (+20 from last week), and Ivy is about 6 months at 743g (+20 from last week). Everybody is eating normally, including hay, pellets & veggies.
I'll admit they aren't on good pellets, they're on Kaytee brand right now (no colored bits, though). I'm ordering either Oxbow or KMS this week, still trying to find the best price. They were on Kaytee hay for awhile, but are now on hay from the shelter, which looks to have come from a feed & tack store. I'm picking up a bale today from a place closer to me. As for veggies they are getting 3 cups of veg, split into AM & PM feedings, that include red/green leaf lettuce, cilantro, green/yellow bell pepper, cucumber, belgian endive/radicchio and mint/basil.
