And the offending ingredient is..................

CHICKEN !!!

well after a few weeks of trialling foods on dylan to eliminate ingredients and locate the cause of his repeated 'colitis/dodgy tum' episodes, it appears that chicken is the offending ingredient.

tried a chicken, carrot and rice only feed but on this he rapidly deterioated again, so switched to a fish, tripe, carrot rice and potato feed and fingers crossed 10 days without any incident (and rock solid if you get my meaning lol) Very Happy

I only wish his new food didnt stink so much lol Embarassed

Glad you got to the bottom of the problem at last. Fingers crossed Dylan will be ok now. Very Happy

Thanks Karen,

Im just so glad he is on naturediet..... I dont know if it by design or luck that I was able to easily move from one food to another and eliminate ingredients easily.

Good detective work DD, shame about the chicken for Dylan though, have you tried him with fresh?

Hope Dylan stays ok now with no more tummy probs, maybe you should wear a mask while feeding him Laughing
