    Nervous Mommy

    Okay, DD normally has urates on Friday night/Saturday morning every single week since we got him. Has passed a BM every 28 days. He's always been like clock work, since Thanksgiving there has not been one single urate or BM, still eating and temps, humidity and everything are good. Is it normal for their systems to slow this time of year? Should I be worried? Should I give him a bath? Thanks. I am just a little nervous. It's been almost 6 weeks.

    I feed on Friday; and have a gift almost every week on Wednesday or Thursday...so my BP basically poops once a week. Is this also normal? Why would one go every 28 days, and another once a week?

    Because they are all individual and unique animals. There is not "blueprint" for them to follow, they do what they want.
