Piece of Cotton just found in food
I just pulled a length of cotton chord from Bolders mouth and as she'd been eating I think it must have come from either her Exotic Leaf pellets or the pre alpine cob which was mixed with them. I'll definately keep an eye on the food in future as this was a long bit certainly a worry I'm not sure whether it would have harmed her had she swallowed it. Hubby wonders whether it was a bit of the chord that fastens the sacks.

Someone had post last week about how to get your torts to eat the pre alpine and in one of the pictures you could see a piece of string in the cobs.

this was definately cotton and very strong and several inches long, I couldn't snap it easily so it would have taken a while to rot had it got inside her, she's never allowed on the floor and this is a new table with new soil/bedding etc. Thanks for the link maybe I'll ask Alan
