So I cleaned Pablo’s cage out yesterday put a new mat in. I come home today and pull out the milk jug rings and barrel of monkeys that drop between the bottom of the cage from him playing and there’s about a dozen little turds. Is this a normal amount? I noticed when I dumped the last cage liner there’s was a lot as well. It’s his normal color and consistency. I did switch his diet to hpw 2 weeks ago otherwise nothing else has changed.

My little dudes will usually each drop 2-4 turds in one "sitting". I imagine they will poop 2-4 times overnight. Often I will spend time with them and they will poop twice in under 45 minutes.

I don't think its a worrying amount. They have high metabolisms and eat kind of a lot of food for their body mass. That food has to go somewhere :p

(Off topic but I hate not mentioning it, try to get pablo a friend if you aren't already!)

More poop is better than no poop at all. As long as it’s a normal consistency, not diarrhea or anything weird.
