Sounds like it could be UC. Do you have any ammonium chloride?

What type of hay is he on? Do you give him any treats? If so what are they?

Yes, i give him ammonium chloride. He is on 2nd cut hay, mixture. No we really don't give him treats. He is Nygerian Dwarf

He is doing better and is seemingly more comfortable with each passing day and some meds i picked up from the Vet.
Fingers crossed he kicks it this time. Any suggestions on how to make the Ammonium Chloride more appealing to him ? I give it to him with water and also mix a small amount into the protein powder but he is really NOT liking it.

Thanks
