Mister is set for every 2 hours for 15 seconds and I turn it off a couple hours before lights out. I turn the mister on at 8am and off around 6. I also hand mist the plants here and there. Humidity is around 80% during the day.
If you look closely you can see he is perched with his right front and left leg. And his left front and right rear feet are clasped together. Curl had his 3rd visit to the vet today. More vita,D,B and antibiotic. Good news is he hasn't lost weight...bad news he hasn't gained any. More good news...
I'm trying to decide between the Dragonstrand Large Keeper and the Jungle Hobbies XL. I like the Dragonstrand because it has the ledges and the Jungle Hobbies is setup for the Mistking system. Which is the better feature? Or is there another cage that is better?
So I decided I would feed him and get some water with calcium in him. I have liquid calcium I put in water and used an eye dropper to get it in him. Then I waited until his mouth was open and fed him a waxworm. He ate it! I was so happy. So I will nurse him back to health if it kills me. And...
I have done tons of research and I feel like I have done everything right. I took him to the vet as soon as I noticed a problem. The vet is very knowledgeable when it comes to reptiles. My worry right now is that even if he does start eating that the lack of calcium right now is going to cause...
Here is the feeder cup I made. The crickets stay on that mesh so I know Curl can get them but he just doesn't care. I put worms in front of him and he just ignores them. Sometimes crickets get loose and I have seen them walking in front of and on top of him but again just ignores them.
He has not eaten in a week. I have had him for 2 weeks. But even when he did eat it was very little. Maybe 1 cricket a day. I took him to the vet for the eye issue and lack of eating. I believe he got vitamin A and antibiotic just in case the eye was infected...though I don't think it is. It...
How long did yours go without eating. Curl still shows no interest in food. I tried putting a worm in his mouth and he chewed it once and spit it out. He is still keeping his right eye closed but can still open it and see fine. Can they move their tongue into the orbital? I notice sometimes a...
Ok so I just saw him eat for the first time...sort of. He snatched a wax worm, chewed it up, then spit it out. That would have been his first meal in 3 days I think. He is drinking though. His eye looks like it is opened more today since turning off the compact UVB bulb. My wife is picking up...
I saw that there used to be issues but supposedly were ok now. I will use that bulb sparingly until I get his new home setup. Thanks for the info. I'll post tomorrow with an update.
