Help!!!!
My neonate jackson stopped eating.....he seems like he wants to eat, but his tongue wont come fully out of his mouth.
A little history..... He was born June 1, so he is now 12 days old. A friend of mine gave him to me bc he couldnt take care of him. When he first gave him to me 6 days ago, Action was thriving! my friend gave me some crickets (that were way too big) action didnt care he munched them anyway. He ate those for the first day until i made it to the otherside of the island to get him pinhead crickets. Action was stoked on the pinheads he crushed 4 the first day and 5 the next. the 4th day is when he couldnt use his tongue anymore. so for two days he didnt eat. So today i hand fed him 3 crickets so he didnt wither away. He is outside (Maui) in a fully screened cage. there is a hibiscus plant in there for him to climb about on and im constantly sparying his cage.
I dont know what else to do!!!!????
could he of gotten hurt by one of the larger crickets?
could he of gotten too much calcium?
Maybe not enough water (even though its there for him all day, drip system as well as sparying cage)????
Please Help! I want my baby to make it!!!!!
