[QUOTE="Claudiusx, post: 2030304, member: 31715"] Hi there, That's a scary event to witness i'm sure. If that is a recent picture, he doesn't look TOO bad. It's good that he is supporting his chest off of his hide. He at least has the energy to do that. He definitely looks skinny and is not displaying his happy colors. I wouldn't worry about the shedding though. They are slow growers and shed sticks around for a LONG time on Uros. Keep offering him daily salads, with a light light sprinkle of multivitamin powder two times a week. He likely won't eat, or won't eat much, but don't get discouraged, just keep offering the fresh salads. I would be cautious with the want to force feed and give the supplemental calcium. Based on your description so far, I don't feel like he's really in a life or death situation right now, and can likely pull himself back to good health with the proper care and time. If he's been malnourished his whole life, you need to go slow with the nutrients. You don't want to overwhelm the system. If he is willing to drink a little bit of water every other day or so, go for it. But I'd only give him the oral calcium once a week at this point. -Brandon [/QUOTE]
