I am afraid this is what I am going to have to do.
He has gone from not wanting to eat to completely uninterested in any food. Even worms.
ASDJasKLDJsd. This is so stressful :,(
If he won't eat bug juice I am afraid it will be back to the vet. Perhaps a different one this time :(
Oh no.
The shipping I am worried about though.
Mostly because it has been well into the 90s here lately and so now I am thinking this may not work :(
I am going to go on a hunt tomorrow for other worms and supplements. Hopefully someone somewhere will be able to help.
I am on that site now actually!
I did not see those cups before and was trying to do them separately and it was getting expensive :eek:
Thank you for pointing those out.
Yes. But that was when he was only 2 months old.
Are there options other than silk worms?
Is it difficult to keep them/ breed them?
I live in a very small space.
I saw some silk worms at the reptile store I purchase him from and the were like almost as long as he was. Are they all that huge? I also think that this is the only possible place that I could get them from. I only have an option between two stores.
Is there some kind of liquid calcium I...
No calcium injections. He said he didn't want to overload him.
He has a Zilla 15watt UVB light. When I got him his crest was crocked. I don't know if he has always had MBD or not since, apparently, I just wasted $200 yesterday.
He also goes outdoors a few times a week.
I have a powder...
Ok great. Fine. Let's say he has MBD.
Now can I please get some assistance in helping him eat his food so he can get some calcium.
Like I originally asked.
Especially because he has MBD and NEEDS CALCIUM. Which means he needs to EAT.
Should I try some other food options? He is small. I can't...
Is there any way to delete this thread?
I am obviously not getting the help I need.
I need help with getting him to eat.
That is my biggest concern. He NEEDS calcium. That is what matters. I just asked for some help.
And before anyone warns me, I know that they can get large fat deposits in their livers from eating too many wax worms. Which is why I came for help. I need him to get something else.
He actually doesn't have MBD.
He just had all sorts of x-rays and tests yesterday. He is in danger of developing it but fingers-crossed it doesn't get there.
He can shoot his tongue out just fine. The biggest problem is that he can't climb around and hunt for them.
I am aware that wax worms...
Ok so I know I just was on a couple days ago, I will post the 'How to Ask for Help' survey again if need be.
To make a long story short, my Cham went to the vet yesterday and he has as fracture in his arm. He is not allowed to move around much and has to be fed by me since he cannot climb...
Well, the vet said I should keep that in mind but that he does not have MBD currently. So I will definitely be giving him more/better calcium supplements.
And unfortunately no. I didn't get to get to take the x-ray with me. It was all computerized.
