F10 is recommending on-label for fogging for issues such as respiratory fungal and bacterial disease at least in birds-although I don't think I would do it. But I agree with you, I don't see any way it would be indicted for thermal burns. Unless the vet saw or suspected an RI as well.
There is a gift and curse to having an older pet. We know what is eventually inevitable is creeping closer..but them being older means we have been gifted with time and so many more wonderful moments. To know that he is secure and comfortable and lacking for nothing should also bring you...
Well we need to talk! Specifically some swaps. I have, well, everything. I can't bear to throw them away so I have hundreds of baby VFT, and I think about 100 different types? About the same number on butterworts. These pics are just what's currently outside. All are running about 6 months...
Would not think so, have not seen that.
I suppose IF they were eating a ton of them they would be getting additional fluid (versus eating crickets for example) so they might look "plumper" that you are used to?
For those with beardies, if you would like to contribute to a research project being done by a group of reptile vets researching nutritional, the information is below:
Subject: [ExoticDVM] Bearded dragon nutritional survey
Dear Colleagues,
We have an industry-funded nutrition project to...
LOL well the girls get theirs, too it just takes a little longer :)
After all, the alternative is that they just starve to death and die which I really hate to see. If and when that happens (for example chams are too stuffed...) the dead make their way into one of several hundred hungry pitcher...
I use the wax paper, too. I use paintbrush to put the newly hatched on a piece of wax paper in a petri dish with food. The top on the petri dish keeps them and the food from drying out too fast. I keep them in there until they are white or as long as I can.
Also I used to use the gutter screen...
I do mine in the regular fridge, in the drawer that I think is for cheese? They are in petri dishes which I tape together; if too much air they will dry out. And having experimented with different time periods, mine do better with a 6 month cold period. I write date laid right on the paper that...
Definitely out of sight of them. Dino will spot a spider crawling on the other side of the room; I know something is there (thank goodness) because he is tracking it. They constantly scan the entire environment for food and threats.
