so my little fighter finally ate! i took the advice i was given and slipped a teeny tiny little cricket in her mouth when she opened it to drink and she chomped up three crickets!! i only did three in fear of feeding too many and hurting her belly by over feeding so we are going to try a few...

thank you! i really hope so too i’ve gotten so attached in just three days lol

so i do both actually! i do 5-10 minute showers once a day and every few hours i use an eye dropper with the gatorade. i am very careful to watch her since she keeps her eyes closed so i need to be sure she actually grabs the leaves instead of falling off. i only will hand drip as much as she...

i will definitely try sneaking in some bugs thank you! and i have only seen her poop once and it was right before the vet today and it was very liquid but it was white when it dried so hopefully all the meds work. i was going to go with the carnivore care first to get the appetite back but i...

she has not eaten at all unfortunately. she has been eying up her meal worms like she wants to but is scared. the first real thing she ate was her carnivore care and that was only 0.1 g as prescribed i was told i could cut open the mealworms and scoop out their insides and syringe feed that as...

i will definitely adjust the temp when i have a definite temp. she also seeks out the heat and will climb onto the lid and sleep directly under the heat bulb. i don’t allow this in fear of her burning herself but she does everything in her power to be right under the heat

so i work at a pet store and she was being outcompeted by the other ladies so she declined really fast and i decided “if she’s not going to make it she will at least be comfortable and cared for in her final days” and i took her home. i have yet to put my probe thermometer in her tank (i have to...

yes she said she doesn’t think there is an active infection but gave me antibiotics just to be safe

yes i take a cup of water and dribble in a bit of gatorade so it’s diluted but the vet said this was actually fine since it has sugar and electrolytes and is a good way to help her out. she laps it up like crazy and it seems to have helped her out with getting some energy back. again, i have...

oh yikes i didn’t know they bite but i will for sure try to stick to bottle misting instead! i make sure the water is temped first so she doesn’t burn her. i just wanted clarity on the showering since some people weren’t happy with me for doing it. my other question is is diluted gatorade...

thank you for some clarification! i would love to try a horn worm but she is so sick she won’t eat anything. the vet started her on carnivore care as well as a calcium/vitamin supplement today and told me to keep up with a diluted gatorade solution as well as misting. i have never owned a...

so i have noticed this being talked about before but was wondering if it was alright to use the shower for extra hydration for a dehydrated rehab cham? i saw en exotic vet today so she could get checked out properly, and she told me as long as i was careful and the cham wasn’t stressed out, it...
