Okay, so I've seen a couple of people mention about breakfast so I wasn't sure whether that meant veggies in the morning and also at night or whether it meant pellets.
Currently, frank will be given a small handful of Excel Pellets in the morning as I don't want to over feed him - If I should be weighing out at least 30g, then tell me I'll see to it that it's done.
He has timothy hay all day and water, so that's no problem!
Then he gets his veggies everyday normally about 9pm, although I will probably start doing that earlier when I go back to Uni as he'll be living with me in a non-smoking environment, wahey!!!!
His basic daily veg is this:
1 Slice Green pepper (1/8 Pepper)
1 Slice Yellow Pepper (1/8 Pepper)
2-3 Leaves of baby gem lettuce
3 small chunks of carrot
Sometimes I add stuff like cucumber and other things to change it up a bit and add other stuff, according to recommended guidelines of the happycavy website I think it is?
Basically my question is... Shall I be giving him more veg? Should he have veg in the morning to? Or is there something he should have for breakfast?
Also because Frank was ill he lost weight, what weight should I get him back to that isn't overweight?
Thanks!
