I've got is soaking, or attempting to soak, in a hot, dish soap bath.
I'd like to introduce it to him later today, but if it's still gross it probably won't be until tomorrow
I again appreciate the offer, but this 78 page topic has covered my setup multiple times with several veteran members. His setup is ideal, until he needs to upgrade to a larger enclosure.
I'm not concerned or asking for assistance on the matter.
He has a reptisun 5.0 uvb bulb and basking bulb. He's just picky. I haven't heard anything about uva bulbs for reptiles. Uvb affects most of their well-being, and temperature helps stimulate their appetite
Good luck with the new baby!! It is very difficult starting out with a sickly one, and it feels terrible knowing how many are passing away as just babies due to illnesses :( whether it's improper care prior to bringing them home, or genetic, it's always an upsetting loss.
I hope the new baby...
V wouldn't allow photos on the scale, but still at 84g. I wish he'd eat more, and a variety, but he's starting another shed so at least he's still growing
Ya Friday was my sister's birthday, and then last night I spent installing a storm door, so I fell a bit behind. He's still as picky as ever. Superworms or nothing
Snuggling on my hoodie.
He's eating more plants than anything right now. Hornworms are just clinging to plants in his enclosure, crickets are sitting up top, chirping..
My cat does get excited when they run on the floor, but she basically gallops after them and then just stops, like she just wants to keep up. She's never once done anything to suggest she wants to attack. She's a very good girl :) I even leave a bin of crickets open in my living room, no lid or...
My kitty is about 8 years old and very good about all the critters. She'll sniff them, but doesn't hunt them. If she showed any sign of considering them prey, I'd never allow them together
I'm glad some good can come of my story. It was very very difficult, but that path did lead me to V, and I'm so happy to have him. I just wish I didn't have to experience two losses to get here.
Speaking of V, it's weigh day. His little face has been shedding the past few days, just about done...
