    O yes I agree but the situation is 2 boys and 2 girls in separate cages, 1 boy is still young and growing and 1 girl is very young and growing so I was advised that they need to have the pellet available. At the end of the day half is left behind so I'm only topping up half really. I am home all...

I stayed clear of those and stuck to the leaves only previously? I can't get kale anywhere! And peas in the pod are few and...

    Fresh Food Really need help with daily veg, calling all members in the know!

    I've been following that fantastic chart since day one, it's been a great help! I cut everything up quite small I guess so a few slices of cucumber, a cherry tomatoe, carrot and celery doesn't seem to add up to much for them with some lettuce! Maybe I should be feeding it less cut up, would...

    Fleece Any suggestions? Ideas? Tips?

    Thanks for all your replies, yes they just love being messy which is fine I'm not so much of a clean freak, the problem is more that I made the mistake of pure black fleece in one of my cages and that's the one causes the most annoyance because my Ruby in particular is a Swiss teddy and his hair...
