1.2 WC Tamataves

I'm transfering this thread to a blog...

Project Tamatave started 3/9/2013....

My Friend Mike (MaxTTU) and I were offered a chance trade CB Ambilobes for wild caught Tamataves. Needless to say but we jumped at the opportunity to work with fresh blood lines and gain experience with wild caught animals.
I'm holding all three until Mike gets his cages set up. I plan to take terrabytes of pics while I have them all.

This is Mike's Male I'm calling Tommy Tomato from Tamatave.

This is Pumpkin.
Poor Pumpkin is super skinny. Pumpkin has been fascinated & taking full advantage of the basking lamp & routine waterings.

Pumpkin just pooed. It looks some what good... so did the egg she dropped next to her poo. Tam egg#1 is in the incubator.

Tomato just eat 1 ML of reptaid in a superworm. I plan on giving him another .5 before bed.

Tammy is still in shock. She is eating and drinking but not moving much. no poo yet.

Today tomato is eating good, alert, and exploring his cage. He has not picked a favorite sleeping spot yet. He has a stong really long tounge the rocks the side of his cage. His tounge seems much much stronger and longer than my CB panthers.

Tammy has started exploring the bottom of her cage. I'm getting a laying bucket setup now. Her poo yesterday looked really good.

Pumpkin has not layed after initially showing interest in the laying bin. She still seems restless. I put her in her bin a couple times a day for an hour or so. Her poo is still showing slight dehydration. I'm watering her 4 times a day.

I've had them for week. It's time to start treatment.

Tomato: I'm still seeing worms in his stool. His stool looks dehydrated and undigested. Luckily he took to hand feeding superworms. I was able to inject .01 ML of reptaid into a superworm and give that to him. I also gave him .02 ML of distilled water injected into a superworm. He is 85 grams.

Tammy: Her stool looks ok. It's mostly black and has a little white/yellow in the urate. I was able to inject .01 ML of reptaid into a superworm and give that to him. I also gave him .02 ML of distilled water injected into a superworm.
She is 47 grams.

Pumpkin: Her stool looks great. She will not hand feed so I left her alone. She is still really skinny. She dropped another egg. Her appetite seems to have declined since laying. She dropped 1 more egg today.
She is 50 grams.
