Shhhh...Don't say as much too loudly; there are people out there who'd flay anyone alive for suggesting such a thing.
In all seriousness,Zoe's digestive system was humming along on hay (timothy, occasionally someorchard grass and oat), 2 tsp. of pellets and about 1/4 C. of flat-leaf parsley.
I'm so trigger-happy with regards to her gut, I took four months to get her to eating those small amounts of pellets and parsley. But, boy, were her fecals nearly perfect. It's a bittersweet thought, now....I just hope that I can calm her gut enough to get it back to that point--and improved, even. I'd like to see hereating a minimum of 1 Tbsp. (i.e., 3 tsp.) of pellets daily, if possible, to make up for what her body can't tolerate in the form of greens. I'd also like to get her back on some herbs (peppermint, parsley, cilantro), even if in the form of a treat (tiny amounts) only.

Thank you for the additional healing prayers.
I really should also ask for prayers to convert Zoe's mindset: from that of a chew-happy, eat-everything bun, to one who entertains herselfwithout ingesting every inedible item on the planet. I swear, her behavior makes me feel, well, :twitch:.

Thank you. :hug:
Does he eat every inedible thing in sight, too? Goodness, it wouldn't be half as bad if Zoe's gut could at least pass things through without enteritis/gas/stasis/etc. each time.
