Hi everyone,
I have a 20 week old silkie who has begun to act a bit strange lately. So basically I started to notice last week she was sitting down more often than usual, however her appetite was normal and she was eating well and still gets up and plays as usual but just sits down more in between. A few days ago she was limping and we noticed a hard ball of poop stuck and built around her toe nail and so we cleaned it up for her and she started walking normally thereafter- I thought this may have been the initial problem. But she's still sitting more often and now I've noticed her poop has like a stringy red line through it and I wonder if there's something more serious brewing up with her? I have attached a photo of her poop.
What can I do? Does anyone know what this could be? She seems otherwise healthy.
