I usually bathe Aspen every 4-5 months in the winter, but now I have started to bathe him every 2 months or so because he smells a little. Is it because it's warmer?
I can't describe the smell, but it's just barely. I mean, you have to get close to him to notice it. He still gets fish maybe like 4-5 times a week, but not as much like before.What does he smell like? Is he still getting primarily fish in his diet?
Throughout the day. And, call me weird and nasty but I have even smelled his butt and it hardly smells.ETA: When are you noticing this fluid stuff, during a bowel movement?
Okay good. :wink:Nah, not weird at all. We are all kinda like that here LOL :wink:
He's getting a bath this Thursday so I'll go in there and see if they need to be expressed. Thanks!So...this fluid is just coming out on its own throughout the day? If so then it means he's expressing his anal glands on his own at random. Which is unusual because they usually do this during a bowel movement. It might mean that they actually are super full and do need to be expressed since they may not be during a bowel movement.
