Just tell him he should be pleased that it only LOOKS like a pigsty.  Digby has been in all day and I cant vacuum cos he beats up the vacuum cleaner.

too much variation essentially will cause scour 

mine got scour last year when we changed brands of weaners nuts, cos one was wheat based and the other barley based.  :wave:

 ;D

Anyone who prefers wheat based over barley based or the other way around and why? I never really thought about it even though I do read the label on the bags to make sure there's no GM or soya in it. I know barley makes them put on more fat... I'll have a look before ordering the next tonne of food.
