Hi Everyone!

(I am going to take in a poop sample from Myka as soon as my parents will take me to town...)

For the last three days Myka has been eating more and more (collards, dandelion greens, butternut squash, acorn squash, beans, snow peas, the odd mushroom, and a small amount of fruit), but pooing less and less. Today it was only about 1.5" long, and it looked as though it took her a bit of effort to get it out. It was dark brown in color, and not very soft. Yesterday and the day before they were very small poops as well, only about 3-4" long. For the two days before she had very soft poop, that had very little shape, and there was a lot of it. Is she impacted? I don't know what could have caused it if she was, except for the bark on her tree, but there is NO loose bark for her to eat...I spent hours with a wire brush taking all the little bits off, and take off whatever I can several times each day.

Could this just be that she is using her nutrients different since she is getting a better diet? I'm going to call my vet today if it is anything that isn't 100% normal and see if I should bring her in. Please tell me what you think! Thanks! Wendy :)
