Sooo much pooping

[mollyripkim]

Bought some bran as it seemed recommended on here but when I mixed it in their food they just scattered the pellets everywhere, never done that before, assuming to get the bran. So now a couple of times a week a put a small palm full in a little bowl which they demolish straight away.

Are there any reasons why I shouldn't do that - or must it be mixed in food?

Thanks everyone.

No - mine love it dished up this way. I found out by accident when I dropped the containerful that I was going to add to their pellets. It was hoovered up in nanoseconds.

I nput a little pile inside the coop on the fresh aubiose - it's meant to keep area smelling fresh, but they eat it all withi seconds !!

Good idea as they now eat their pellets in a nice civilised fashion!
