Expected Weight Loss When off Veggies

[rp1993]

I had to take the boys of Veggies starting Saturday because Pepper had some soft poops.

Both boys are down about 50/60g in weight, I know this is on the edge of an issue or an empty bladder but when off veggies is it expected that they will be down a little?

I have also been giving them a bowl of CC with some fibreplex which they have been eating.

They are both booked in at the vets on Wednesday but I don’t know if I’m over reacting, poops are looking better so I’m going to introduce veg again tomorrow.

I’m more concern about Pepper as he has never regained the weight fully from when he had his URI so his is back to that weight which the vet did say was under weight for him.

Hi, awww sorry to hear your boys are losing weight. I can be so frightening can't it, not knowing what to do. Did you get them to the vets today? How are they doing?

Yes that had their appointment yesterday, thankfully both their weights have started to go up. Pringle my bigger pig is fine, but my little boy pepper is going back on Metacam for a few weeks as he likely has some scaring from a URi a few months ago!
