I have had my four week old eastern gray since birth. She started a new formula a week and a half ago and has had small, compact, dark gold pellets ever since. It takes me about 15 minutes of stimulating her genitals and gently massaging her tummy for her to finish pooping and sometimes she makes a little squeak while she's pushing like it's uncomfortable. She may be slightly dehydrated, though she passes the pinch test and has clear urine. She is otherwise healthy.
I feed her every 3-4 hours around the clock. She eats 4 to 4.5ccs of Fox Valley 20/50 formula, two parts water: one part formula.
Should I be giving her water between feedings, and if so, how much? Maybe someone could post of photo of healthy poo?
Thanks.
