Hi All!
Percy has been eating only pellets as a staple for a couple of days now. He’s decided he wants the Zupreem Fruit Blend a size bigger than suggested. He ends up dunking them in water and fishing out the smaller pieces after he breaks them apart. Makes for more water changes butt least he’s off the seed!
I noticed he picks his favorite flavor (or color) first. The oranges are first to go, purple next, then red, then yellow, and the green end up on the floor. He’s definitely stopped eating as many fresh greens as he did with the seed and the nutriberries. I’m not sure if the pellets and extra water make him more full or what, but that’s the next battle.
I found the answer I was looking for on here but man was I a wreck for a couple of days. Percy is a completely healthy, active, climbing, molting little man. His poo turned brown after switching to pellets - expected. Then I noticed it was more orange tinted... started to get a little concerned. Then it was much darker, almost purple... now I’m freaking out and calling the Vet. Then, it was red and as I’m telling the story about his eating habits and picking favorites... I noticed his poop color matches his hierarchy of pellet eating lol.
I need to switch to natural pellets. This rainbow poop is for the birds (pun totally intended)
