Plain calcium is without D3.
Will do for the supplementation, and the tablecloth. Note on the temperature - the house is typically at 21C at night (70F), so I can't see the temp in the cage being any lower than that. In this case, should I stop fogging at night, and increase misting during...
The vitamin A shots were a few weeks before she lost her tongue, as her eye has been like this for about... 3 or 4 months now? She was given 2 shots 10 days apart, and no more since it didn't help. She has had antibiotics since then, due to the tongue loss, which also didn't have an impact on...
Oh, night time temps, missed that part! To be honest, I'm not actually sure. We cover her cage at night, as she is in the living room, and room lights are on well past her bedtime. When her light goes out, I put the cover on, and I don't take it off again until morning. I will try to...
Thanks for this! When she was injured, the vet said her belly was "a bit fuller than I would expect", and that she could probably stand to loose a couple of grams, so I was really concerned when she started gaining weight so quickly. I'll increase her food a little bit until I get her weight...
I haven't found any silkworms. It seems that our stores here mostly carry meal worms, wax worms, soldier fly larvae, night crawlers and horn worms. I could try to see if I can find some online though.
I'm feeding her every day! She is currently getting 5 meal worms a day, and 3 roaches about...
The Colors of Kailie! Tomorrow will be 6 weeks since she lost her tongue. She is really thriving!! She still won't eat independently, I have a feeder in her cage, similar to the shooting gallery, and I leave Dubia roaches in all day, but she won't touch them. However, when I take her out, she...

I have this feeder for her, but none of the worms ever seen to climb up the pole, so I gave up, and found the shallowest bowl I could lol. I'll go looking for something better today. I do have a better feeder coming, but I'm in Canada, and can't get hold of the ones everyone has recommended

Look at her try to eat bugs!! She hasn't quite figured it out yet, but she's trying 😍
I wondered as well. She's just stopped the pain meds - 2nd night without them. So I'm encouraged to see her having an appetite, even if it's for plants!
She's eating, she's eating, she's eating! Leaves... But still. It's been 2 weeks today since Kailie lost her tongue. For the past few days I have been able to get her to take one wax worm or meal worm along with her syringe feeding. I still have to use the syringe to open her mouth, but she will...

She ate a bug! To be fair, I put a wax worm in her mouth alongside the syringe when I gave her tramadol. But she kept it in, didn't object, and she managed to swallow. Yay!!
