My JoJo loves TOPS pellets! But, it appears she has a mission to crush each and every pellet, ASAP! Small amount/full bowl, by mid day, dust!
She really does not do this with her other pellets, I mix around about 4 to 5 varieties.
My question, throw them out? She does seem to still pick at the dust, but not with the same gusto as with whole. what do y'all do?

Parker does he same thing with his golden'obles! Not sure if he's actually touching his tops though (I'm playing with a mix of both of these right now for daytime mix)

My Savannah will do this. I leave the dust in their until I don't see whole pieces left then I usually dump the dust out and start a fresh bowl. I will see small chunks in the dust but I find if whole pieces are gone she doesn't eat as much.
