Our 7 month old bam bam just scared the living daylights out of me. She wS sleeping on her normal spot, ontop of her worm bowl which is on a custom built little Popsicle stick castle. It has a little fence she always rests her head on. I went to turn off the light and hey eyes were bulging (just shy of half an inch out of her eye sockets!!) and her mouth was open and tongue sticking out. I immediately picked her up and she didn't respond as I moved her in the tank but it slowly went away when I held her. What happened?! I'm so terrified I almost lost her as she is my husbands baby. Her eyes receded back into her sockets and she had a good drink when I offered. :'(

Hello,

It sounds like normal eye bulging behavior. They can have their tongue hanging out with their mouth slightly open along with bulging their eyes.

She is shedding her head so I guess it makes sense but holy crap I thought she was suffocating :( lights just turned on and she's basking so I guess that means she's good. :)

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
