Thank you!! Clydell was 76 grams last night. I always weigh him daily after feeding and potties to stay consistent, along with charting every feeding/weight/in&out. He's generally been eating ~4.5cc GMF (fresh GM, greek plain yogurt, heavy whipping cream) every 4-5 hours. He wasn't emptying well about 2-3x since I've had him, but I've done the method recommended on TSB by giving small amounts of water in addition to a drop of baby gasx and stimulating him, and he poops a lot and goes back to normal. I've only found poop in his bed one time and that was after an emptying marathon potty session. His poop is generally a mustard/brown color and firm. It can be pretty lumpy/segmented which makes me feel like he's having trouble. It was more whiteish yellow and soft looking, but this only lasted a day or so. Visually he seems hydrated. should I add water to his formula? I was afraid to do this and deprive him of nutrients.
I will order the FV 20/50 today and do the transition - I'm expecting a shipment from Henry's in the mail today already for bigger miracle syringes (they are the best ever!) and a bag of the hi-protein blocks to get him used to the smell. Any thoughts on his (2) front nails that fell off in the photo? His other nails seem strong and sharp. I believe the (2) nails were from his fingers being pinched or something when he fell from the nest because they were red when I found him. As always, THANK YOU!!! (and I will gladly look at any of your guys' cage examples ) -ASOS
