Hi,

Have three Pestana saplings who have all had to get tonsils removed. Has anyone ever heard of tonsils affecting weight gain. Feeding them loads but can't get them to fill out. Cheers

Are they still antibiotics?

Hi Mark. No tonsils were removed. They weren't on antibiotics at all. They were only removed 3 weeks ago so improvement in weight may be slow. Thanks

It could be dehydration. The infection can take a fair bit out of them. All the best.
