Hi, I have two juveniles. The first being a male weighing 560 grms , he has lost weight. On 13/11/18 he weighed 608 grms (weighed on new scales as previous were faulty! But he was tiny. Thought he weighed 457 grms ,not sure now, he may have been lighter. Poo looked o.k has been living in adapted green house for a month two houses lots of dry leaves hay etc . Give him earthworms from compost heap (natural) and Spikes semi-moist food .,water. I thought he had started hibernating as there wasn’t much movement seen . He comes out now and then and eats etc. Hoping he will poo on the slabs tonight so I can see if they look healthy(vets have told me what to look for regarding possible worms. I think I will move him indoors and I will get him to the vets for a check up. My hog carer is unable to help at the moment but always recommends this vet and a wildlife rescue centre with whom I have been talking to. Any other advice?
