Soft poo

[Jessie1010]

My guinea pig is eating and drinking as usually but her poo and gone soft and squishy and I think she’s getting most water from veg

Soft poops can be a sign of a tummy upset.
Please stop giving all fresh veg and feed only hay and the normal one tablespoon of pellets to allow the digestive system to settle. Once poops normalise, which may take a few days, wait a further 24 hours and then reintroduce veg slowly so as to not cause a further upset.
If things don’t settle after a couple of days without veg, then please see a vet

It can be a good idea to give a probiotic to a piggy who is suffering from a digestive upset

Whenever my piggies have soft poops I take them off all veg for a few days. Mine do lose a bit of weight whilst not having veg. If it sorts itself out that’s great. If not a vet trip is in order.

My 4 year old girl Daisy had soft poos a few months ago, so I took her off veggies for a while (although she was not happy about it as you can imagine). Luckily her poos went back to normal within 4 days
