Just lately, my Aro's poop has started to float instead of sink. In humans, this is indicitive of a digestive/pancreatic problem. In Aro's that eat pellets, their poop looks so much like pellets that he chomped down on his own doo doo. He spit it out and shot me the look. I told him stupid is as stupid does.

I can't believe I'm writing about this subject. Anyway, does anyone know if this suggests a health problem? Does this happen to anyone else? OK, go ahead, start cracking the jokes.......

:eek: :WHOA: :nilly: :popcorn: :drool: ha ha just kidding on the last one.....
 
kinda common. some poop digets differently in my experience. if he eats a lot of pellets, poopy is kinda floaty, eats a mouse, very fuzzy and floaty, eats some shrimp, always sinking.
 
Maybe he is getting too much fiber. Are there any proctologists on MFK. Try giving him some high protein foods like raw shrimp. The pellets may be fish meal and fillers. They are expensive also.

My aro poop always sinks but then again my guy won't eat pellets and I never feed mice.

But my goldfish poop floats and they get a lot of pellets and flake food.

his poop floats because of the pellets he eats, there floating, and why? because the tiny gas bubble inside the pellet food that keep it aloft.

What would Stewart Little do, you maybe killed one of his kids! What about Cinderella and the singing mouse "gus Gus" he made a fairytail (ha ha sp) come true.
What if you killed on of the rats of NIMH
What about the lil' dude in the comedy movie "Mousehunt" he kicked tail!
OK, do you feel guilty yet? Poor little cute mice!:D
