Love a recovery video!!

Wow, these are some phenomenal photos!

So sorry for your loss. Thank you for doing the right thing and giving him good care.

Phew I'm getting weepy over here. You saved her! You did that! Thank you for helping her and being a part of the community. Happy one year, Nachito!

Congrats to the winners!!

It's not fun but I'll take ringworm over coccidia or a prolapse (for myself or any creature I take care of, lol).

Yep. I got it, too. Thankfully none of my other animals caught it (including her cage mate). Never a dull moment when you have exotics!! :)

You know Dr. Bruce sees a lot of animals. Just brought him one of my guinea pigs (ringworm, womp) and I know he sees geese and chickens too. Roaches might be a new one for him lol!

Best wishes to your roach lady for the prolapse to resolve. Your concern for the animals in your care is inspiring!

I guess anything that has a butthole can get a prolapse. Not fun for any species!!!

Seems like it might be a prolapse - based on this roach forum post: https://www.roachforum.com/topic/7413-possible-prolapse/ (Things I never thought I'd Google...)

I don't know what I expected but 🤮

Oh no!! The mold on those eggs is tragic. Good luck with the pairing.

My Veiled has completely stripped my nepenthes (pitcher plant) and chomps on pothos quite a bit. I keep hoping the pitcher plant will come back one day. 🤞

Mine gets that way too! It's still important to do regular checks and stay vigilant. Yoda's slump this year was also a liver infection on top of the winter blues! Wouldn't have caught it it I didn't do annual blood work.

Sorry your little one has a URI, hopefully he'll respond to the treatment and start eating more. @Beman @MissSkittles what do you think about the fogging? I recall one of you saying pneumonia bacteria is very opportunistic with fogging especially if the temps aren't low enough when you do it.

So beautiful!

Right? It was surprising! He is back to his typical weight now, ~185 grams. When he was sick, it was closer to ~200.

Sounds like she just wasn't in the mood at first! I hope everything goes well from here!

Got great news today. Yoda's blood work is much better. Still indicates some inflammation so Dr. Bruce is having me continue on with the milk thistle supplement. We'll do a recheck in three months. Interestingly his weight went up when he was in the height of his infection and it's back down...
