I've noticed that at least one of my goos does this, and I'm concerned that something might be wrong.
What happens is, s/he'll be drinking out of their water bottle, and all of a sudden will make this sort of 'crinkle face'. I guess the nearest thing I can compare to is, have you ever seen a Hamster will full cheeks nibbling on something? My goo sort of squints, and lays their ears back. I wish I could get a video or something, it would be so much easier to show than explain.
Do anyone else's goos do this, or has no one else ever stared at them while they're drinking?  I am also not the only one in the house who has noticed this.
I don't know if this will change anyone's answer, but I change their water every day, and rinse the bottle out with the hottest water I can stand, paying close attention to cleaning out the sipper tube. I check it before I put it back in to make sure it's working properly, and to make sure it's not too hot.
Nothing else seems to be wrong with them, except they've decided recently to chew on their wheel. |
