Hi All,

My minis have hay and they have each other to play. I do training sessions with them daily and they still chew on this one tree stump everyday. I give them Vermont blend, vitamin E, and electrolytes at dinner with Timothy pellets. What else can I do or should I let them keep doing this?
 
Do you know what the tree was? Certain tress have "medicinal" qualities that the animals seek out. Sometimes it's boredom, and maybe it just tastes good to them.
 
As long as it's not a black walnut stump or something else toxic I probably wouldn't worry too much about it. If it wasn't the stump it would probably be your sheds/fences/whatever else!
