Twitching

Nova's tail is twitching, right at the base. It's the second time I've ever seen it happen but the first time, it was a few seconds. This time was literally like an entire minute before it stopped. It didn't seem to bother her. She has the Arcadia D3 t5 bulb and gets calcium in her salad everyday. Is it a sign of MBD or just coincidence.?

Here is a link to the video. New video by Amber

How much multivitamins are you giving, she may need a bit more

I have a probiotic powder but she won't eat her salad if I put it on, she barely eats her salad at all. I do have critical care food supplement I've been giving to Dreki, should I give some to her.?

I'll have to try that. The critical care does have some vitamin in it, A, D3 and B12, and E and C and niacin.

I injected liquid probiotics into roaches. It worked very well.
Holy hell, really.? She won't really eat roaches, I can maybe get her to eat like three every few days. She just up and decided she didn't like roaches anymore, or any food really

When Snickers was an antibiotic i injected that into hornworms. I had to be fast though because it would ooze back out.

And it worked just as well that way.? Like it didn't make it work any less or anything like that.?

Yes, it worked well. I prepared 2-4 roaches this way, the injections were small and it didn’t seem to harm the roaches. Foxy loves dubias and this method helped me a lot.

I also used hornworms to give a probiotic. But I used them for powder. I dipped the worm's tail in water (about 1cm) and then put it in a jar of powder. The powder stuck well to the worm's tail and I gave this culinary dish to Foxy.

Yeah it worked good, I'm guessing the hornworms were P.o.'ed though lol

That's wild. I know some injectable antibiotic isn't supposed to be ingested so I guess I'd have to check for that. We haven't given Dreki any antibiotics since the day of the vet and she seems... almost improving. She's still eating some of her salad when I put it down was scratching to get out and even pooped. It looked normal and the urate was a nice size and nicely formed so at least I don't think she's dehydrated. Aaaanndd, I got Nubby to eat some crickets yesterday. Dreki still won't eat bugs, she pulls away like she's afraid of them or something.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
