And he has additional hayledge when required too.
Right my questions is this ......Now i have been given two lots of advice, that he should be on molly chaff as well as his hi light basic cubes, being a new owner i am aware that any change in food needs to be done gradually, but what would the benifit of adding chaff to his food ( he does not bolt his food down) but would this solve the problem of the liquid from his rear ?
