Junior Guinea Pig
Firstly - I can't work out which board this should be on, I'm sorry if this is the wrong one!
To cut a long story short, I am currently syringe feeding both of my piggies and I'm struggling. One of them takes it ok - takes me about 25 mins to get 15mls in to him. The other one - you're looking at 45mins-1hour, and I'm convinced he's probably only getting about half of what I give him. I do this 4x's a day.
I'm trying to feed Elvis (25 min feeder) more as I can't seem to get his weight stable.
I feel like I am spending an awful lot of time sitting on the sofa feeding them, and other things are falling apart around me
Anyone got any sort of time schedule in times like this? Is there anything I can do to make it easier?
(They're both regularly seen by vets by the way - I'm not just syringe feeding them and hoping for the best!)
