Hello, I got my pet rats yesterday and one of the rats poop is soft. It hold its shape, but when I pick it up it’s kind of easy to squish? And very large
They are 8 months. I feed them Oxbow, which is what the rescue fed them. One of the rats I met had a fear poo which was quite different than regular poop. I’m hoping it will go away after a weekRats are very stressed the first few days following a move, whether it be from breeder to home, or from rescue to home. Rats have stress/fear poos. They smell horrible and they're rather soft. Give it a few days and see if it clears up.
Also, how old are they?
Another reason their poos may be soft might be diet. What are you feeding them? What did the breeder/rescue feed them before you got them?
