I adopted my baby boy at the beginning of September at first he struggled with eating while he was adjusting to his new home. Since he has gotten much better about eating however he still does not eat hay. I try to limit the amount of pellets he gets because I have read that since the pellets are carbohydrates he is more likely to eat them than the healthier hay if provided. I add new hay to his cage everyday but about every 3 days I remove it and start over because he doesn't eat any of it. I have tried 3 different types of hay as well, Timothy hay, meadow hay, and alfalfa hay. I have also tried hay blocks, he will not eat them either. Any suggestions? Should I be worried that he won't eat hay? Is there a type that I may not have tried that he might like? Thank you for any help and suggestions!
