Hello, so I just introduced dubia roaches and hornworms to my veiled. My husband said he noticed her mouth gapping.
Tonight, after feeding & spraying, I noticed the gapping, hard swallowing, head up which I haven't noticed before.
She isn't having any breathing issues that I can notice, no sounds.
I have had her going on a month now, she does seem to possibly have some eggs in her belly, but she hasn't been digging or laid any yet.
When I got her they said she was roughly 8 months old. Elmina is very sweet and wants to be handled. She will come right to the door when you try to feed her and climb right on to you. When you go to put her back it she will sit on her branch by the door and paw at it. She has an amazing personality which blows my mind because my last veiled did not want any interaction at all.( Her name was Neme, short for nemesis because you couldn't even walk by without her hissing or opening her mouth towards you.)
Back to Elmina, I just want to make sure she is good. She has a regular check up at the vet on the 7th, but I, will take her sooner if needed but wasn't sure if it was just because I newly introduced her to the bugs or what.
I'll attach a video, so, you can see her breathing appears to be normal and a few pictures from both sides.
