Mordy is back up to health :) yesterday he woke up, i removed his heat mat and placed him by the food and he took a big helping of his zoomed food. i left him eating and when i got back from work, i gave him some spinach, bok choy, and romaine lettuce. he ate a large portion of each thing. i thought today he wouldnt eat early but as soon as i put his food down, he started eating. im wondering how much i should give him? also, he went about a week without eating after an unfortunate vet visit that caused a flare up, so when should i expect him to poop?

I'm glad to hear he's on the mend. Given how little he ate, he's probably starving now!

I'd give him a good big pile of greens in the morning and a top up later in the day.

It could take as much as a week to work its way through, but will probably be less. Keep up with the daily soaks until regular pooping resumes! :)
