Got a newbie last saturday so only been here 4 days , bloke said she was fed 2 weeks ago i try to sent room for all feedings and she was going mad so i thought i see if she will take anything cause she not been here long gave her a guinea pig and she really wanted it bt was shy so i put it on her warm hide 20 mins later i heard a clicking noise i opened sliding doors there are blocked out at momenet as i always do this when some one new comes to help them settle in ,she was 1/4 way down taking her time but she kept clicking sound i thought oh no i hope not (r.i) i watch her carefully and it seemed to be as if she couldnt breath but clearly she could when she finished i waited till she had wriggled around abit and she was fine , i checked her this morning and she was fine , will keep an eye on it but any one have any ideas as to what it could be ???? it may just be how she is ?? but still |

it may have being just some fluids from the food item that were causing a clicking due to their tackiness.? |

yes of course was going to do a picture comparision of all 3 but cant for a few weeks , she is huge when i first went to see her i just looked at her i didnt know what to say , however she was a clam easy to handle lady so to speak , am so glad i got her out by chance i was only changing her water and i chanced the glass on doors to ply so she could settle in easy , and has she had eaten i never hand but i thought i'll just have a look while she is quiet good job i did !! |
