So my one pig Loki drinks so much. I constantly hear him at his water and I time how long he just sits there and drinks and a lot of times it’s five minutes or more. I’ve had him for around a year and he’s always drank a lot but he’s just been drinking so much lately i find myself constantly changing his water.
i also noticed that he has really dry poop. He’s always pooped a lot more than my other pigs but his poop has always been normal until recently. It’s so dry where it’s just crumbling and it’s impossible to keep his cage clean. I wasn’t too worried about it because he’s not losing weight and there’s no change in his eating habits. The only thing I’ve noticed is that he’s just drinking a lot more.
i tried doing my own research but all I keep finding is that he could be dehydrated and that’s why his poop is dry, but that’s obviously not the case.
hes also not struggling when he poops and he appears to be pooping the exact same amount as before, it’s just dry and crumbling and completely covers his cage.
any suggestions?
id really like to solve this issue because it’s such a pain trying to clean his cage when his poop just crumbles.
