Hey beth, I was asking about my hippo last night....She eats ok I guess she doesn't come out when I feed pellet...should I be feeding seaweed????? Her swollen area is smaller today but I think she scraped it against the rocks ...
Pellets foods do tend to cause bloating, and if you don't believe me put one in a glass of water. Try feeding her seaweed selects using a lettuce clip. If she doesn't take to it at first, don't worry she will.
