I'm not sure if it's ok to ask, so forgive me if it's not proper, but would Repashy products be good, for gut loading and calcium dusting? ( bug Berger, and super load and calcium plus)
Thank you so much for the tips on the gutloading and what to watch for in the ingredients!! I mostly order online so I'm sure I can find a good product. I also appreciate the suggestion on talking to the vet in advance of an appointment! Thank you!! :)
The misting is a great idea! I dust every feeding to where the crickets are coated. I also have Zoo Meds Reptivite with D3, but I haven't used it in a long time. Honestly I had it set back and forgot about it. I need to reorder some. Will that be a good supliment to use?
Thanks for the heads up on possible gout. I started reading up on it. Her symptoms seem to follow along with the gout symptoms. She eats crickets and rarely superworms, always calcium dusted ( without vitamin D) crickets gut loaded with Flukers high calcium, and calcium fortified cricket...
I drip warm water over each eye. One has cleared up. If I can get the second one to clear up, it will be great. She started eating and drinking once she could see. I was relieved! Thank you so much for your suggestions! Truly appreciated!
That really seems like a possibility. I appreciate it!! The one with the eye issues IS actually the middle photo. She couldn't see to eat or drink. :(. Her right eye has cleared up, and she can eat and drink now. Everyday I let water drip over her eyes to attempt to moisten them and kinda do an...
The bulbs were new March 14,2017. I do have both of my females in the same habitat. One suggestion I received was to separate them. The femal with the eye issue, does not have any of the puffiness in the extremities. ( the one with the eye issue came up with problems after digging to lay eggs...
Thank you for the suggestion!! I appreciate all of the suggestions I can get. They rarely spend much time in the lower half, unless they are going into the egg laying bin.
THANKS AGAIN!!
I have had the same type of plants on the habitat from the beginning. I THOUGHT they were ok. Because my enclosure is also screen on the floor, I found it necessary to use hanging plants. These looked ideal because they are vine like. Ugh!
Thank you ! I live in a rural part of AR, where we do not have access to Exotic Vets. I'm doing the best I can, with what I have. Both females have been laying eggs regularly, their poop looks good. I appreciate you getting back to me! thanks again !!

The last 2 clutches of eggs my panther laid, were much smaller and not bright white. Does this mean they were not fertilized or could there be a common health issue with my female?
am I correct to believe that because she has a great deal of black displayed that she is gravid. Egg laying bin in habitat, organic soil, correct moisture, etc... I have placed her in the bin a few times so she knows what it is and where to go to lay. I even put food in there so she is enticed...
