So one of my female veileds went on a hunger strike for about a month now. After 10 days of the hunger strike i took her to my vet and they said nothing was wrong with her. I would sometimes force feed her by putting a cricket by her mouth and she would lick it and then i put it in her mouth and she would bite, chew, and eat it. I have put her in the shower multiple times to make sure it wasnt dehydration. I put her outside a couple times to make sure its not UVB. Her fecal samples have been white urate and normal brownish looking feces. her colors are green, and i really dont think its stress, i have not changed her cage at all, and it have cloth on 3 sides of the cage. She is definately not gravid or receptive, but she digs randomly. Recently when i hold her she doesnt open her eyes, until i really press the issue, whether it being a little shaking or spraying her with some water.
Her cage is 18X18X36 i give her calcium every time i feed, plus d3 every 3 days. I have a misting system that goes for 2 minutes every 3 hours. I have UVA 75Watt heat bulb and 5.0UVB mercury buld. She has a ficus in her cage and she also has fake plants and a reptivine throughout her cage, and some fake plants hang from the top which she has been sitting on a particular leaf that is under the heat lamp.
Please if you have any idea let me know, i am really worred for her health. I have been looking for a vet specialist and the closest one i believe is 2 hours away. I dont want to take her to the same vet that i took her the first time because i dont think they know what they are doing and i definatly dont want to payy $100 for them to pry her mouth open with a Q-tip and weigh her.
