Post dental Duke needs your good wishes!

[Wheekallweek]

Still munching spinach guys, won’t eat anything else but at least he can chew! Will give him a few mls of syringe feed tonight anyway to get other nutrition into him.

Great news - so pleased to hear Duke is doing so well.

Great news for Duke! Hope he gets back his appetite for hay and lots of other healthy veg quickly

He was actually excited for his top up syringe food instead of fighting it Didn't want to give him too much as Kim asked us to make sure he was eating solids to keep his teeth down. But when I put the bowl on the floor he started munching it he even managed some pepper (he's been carrying it around from room to room with him like a dog all evening!) Heheh his critical care blanket is making another another appearance in the corner there, we always have it to hand now
Aaaaargh I'm so happy Kim and Simon truly are lifesavers!

Blimey you have him well trained! He looks like he's syringe feeding himself there.

 

[Hils]

What a fabulous result!

 

[flintstones]

I find if I offer grass seeds from the hay almost every poorly pig will attempt them, maybe worth a try to get him eating hay. He must be feeling so much better, which is amazing news!

I'm so happy that he's doing so well! I really hope he continues to improve and is back to his normal self very soon!

 

[Wheekallweek]

Duke’s enjoying his spinach tonight... (please excuse his dirty nails; he decided to walk around in his critical car bowl yesterday lol)

 

[Gem789]

Aww he's so cute, I hope he's eating solids soon x

 

[Wheekallweek]

@Gem789 he can now manage his veggies chopped up into small pieces and his nuggets if we crush them up a bit for him!

 

[Hils]

Fabulous news. Go Duke!

Sorry for not updating you guys! @Merrypigs Sanctuary took duke to his next appointment on Thursday; unfortunately I was working so couldn’t connect however I believe all is ok!

He’s fine in himself and is up to 977g, just about 100g short of his heaviest. Eating like a little piggy too!

Will get @Merrypigs Sanctuary to update you on the details x

 

[Bill & Ted]

No worries @Wheekallweek seeing the earlier post reminded me to check how Duke was doing, I did think about him the other day then forgot to post! I’m scatty at times
Aw, that’s such good news, well done Duke x

Duke update alert
The little guy was so good again, even though he tried to escape as soon as he saw the tooth lady aka Kim He's put on a load of weight which is good. His molars are ever so slightly uneven still, but not enough to file although we're thinking it's because he's still favouring one side to chew on Kim thinks it may be to do with the incisor he broke - it's grown back really well but a bit wider than usual so we're worried the root may have been damaged and still be a bit sore! He's off to the clinic again in a month. He's still right as rain, naughty, cheeky, shouty, greedy and just generally being Duck-man
