    Echinacea

    So my dumbo girl has been quite sneezy lately. She seems a little depressed as well. I moved her from the tank to a wire cage and the sneezing got better, but she still seems fatigued. She just had a litter weaned, and is now nursing a litter from another mom who gave birth a few days after she did because she abandoned the babies. I think it's just too much for her. I have some echinacea pills laying around and I was considering putting some in her water. I know it's okay to use the liquid stuff, but this is a powder in a capsule. How much should I use?

    "Depressed" can be used to describe an observable symptom. Other words she could have used could have been sluggish or lethargic.

    Seriously?

    She's always been a happy go lucky girl, and now she's not. How else could that be described?
