Impaction Question

[Yessabub]

Im not saying spike is impacted i just want to know more about it. He hasnt been eating a lot lately im gonna keep a total this week and let u know at the end of the week. I put 2 dubias in his cup today and he ate 1 and he use to eat about 3 every other day. The pothos in his cage is covered by rocks so he dont eat the soil but is this the only thing that causes it im confused about it? Why im worried is i havent seen any poop for awhile.

How long has it been since he deficated?

My panther went to the vet coz he was constipated (he ended up not going for 14 days!!)

We got it sorted out, the vet gave him plenty of fluids and he passed it.

Dehydration was the main problem so offer him as much water as possible.

i recently set up the dripper system in the cage and before this I was giving him water from a syringe.

Good luck anyway!
