Buddy update but with MORE questions!

[klzam4]

Just wanted to let everyone know that Buddy is doing great!! He is peeing!!
But I have a new question....He is starting to lose his hair under his chin.!!!
I have put the flea powder on him...(making sure that I put it on my hand then rubbing it on him) ....But he started loosing his hair first...What on earth could it be...also he doesnt want to eat his veggies...Where can you buy monkey chow? I just want to make sure he will be healthy and happy..
Any and all advice appreciated...

I believe you are seeing the results of sticky formula. It's called milk burn. When the formula is not completely cleaned off after each feeding ( a difficult task with wiggle worms :D ) it causes a loss of the hair in that area. Don't panic. The hair will grow back just fine. Just check the area for redness or irritation. Normally there are no problems from this.

I will only add that rodent block is better than monkey chow, as it doesn't contain pork fat or the nitrates and BHA that go along with it. Harlan Teklad and Kaytee are two good brands, as listed in the "Healthy Diet."
