    Sand Impaction from crusher dust?

    Thanks for the suggestions! We did have a couple of hot days… I m thinking a combo of things created this situation. The vet suggested Psyllium husks which I bought at the Bulk Barn and add a teaspoon to their feed once a week. Makes me feel better, anyway… Thanks again

    Ok, thanks! It was recommended to put 1/4 " (crusher dust) on top. Do you have that ?
