Hi! I adopted a 7 year old neutered buck a few months ago and everything had been going great! He would always run around his pen when we came into the room to let him out and he would binky and eat all his hay and greens and went crazy for pellets. Now this week he's just been flopped sleeping all day not being himself. He was vet checked before we got him for soft stools but when he came home with us his poop was fine.
All i know about his life before us is that he was an owner surrender for not eating, now he's become that way with me. He won't touch his greens or hay and only nibbled his pellets. He's still drinking water but just flops back over all day and won't leave his cage.
I've done belly checks since we got him and there's no swelling or hardness he feels normal. I've noticed he has trouble jumping onto things like his house and he's not much of a climber.
Does anyone have experience with a nearly senior bun? Is he slowing down cause of age? Is he depressed? Please help!
