is it okay to use fiddlesticks (Large) for a ramp into the litter tray for my piggies. They can get in and out without it. My texels feet are a it red and i wondered if the bridge was irritating her feet or it is normal .Their littter tray is changed every day completely and has dust extracted shavings with hay on top.She walks fine and is her usual self so not causing her any problems. Am i just being paranoid
 
Loads of people use fiddlesticks as bridges so I wouldn't think that's the issue. Redness of the feet is usually because they sit in urine but I wouldn't be overly concerned if you're cleaning them so regularly anyway. I'd keep an eye on her to check they don't get sore, you can use things like Vaseline or a lot of people reccommend the foot balm from gorgeous guineas. You could also try a change of bedding to something like finacard or Fitch just to see if it makes a difference.
