Yay for Keoki!!
I have to be honest and say that I just switched him over right away
I know that is a bad thing but he really did so good on it that I just couldn't stand giving him his old food. He has never had a problem when I switch his food before though so I am sure others would need to introduce it slowly if there baby has problems with that.
Okay, so a little about probiotics. Ralphie has had magor problems with several intestinal parasites in the past (coccidia and giardia). All of the antibiotics that he was on over the months (they were very stubborn) stripped his intestines of all the good bacteria. This little guy has had "poopy" issues since I have had him. It is always way too soft and messy and I can tell that his tummy bothers him even though we got rid of the parasites a while ago. Probiotics help support a healthy digestive tract using live naturally occurring micro-organisms. I finally found one in a powder form and I just sprinkle it over every meal.
Just since Saturday his poopy is really tiny and hard and it doesn't smell bad. And let me tell ya, he used to have some serious stinkers
