Give her a warm soak for about 30 min and see if that will loosen her up ?It will also help with hydration maintence.

Do to the regurg issue,no food for two weeks.It is prefered to allow the animal every chance to heal/correct its own issues before adding manufactured substances/assistance etc.



Patience is a wonderful thing.

>>I have a BCI baby that hadn't eaten since 8/13. I was becoming quite worried as she was a voracious feeder prior to this. I had noticed a hard lump in her belly. I was going to make a vet appointment and then today she regured the tail and back legs of the hopper. The front portion of the meal was hard as a rock. Very weird, it was as if she had impacted by this and it didn't digest after over 2 weeks. Is this possible? Why wouldn't she be able to move the hopper through her system? I am going to wait to feed her 10 days and put some nutribac in her water bowl, does this sound right? Thanks, John
