Hey AHBD, so I got a question regarding brumation (Or I guess "semi - brumation") poops. On the 8th I posted that RJ ate several roaches, he did so on the 9th as well, not as many though. And he's been doing his disappearing trick since (except for me taking him out once for water and weight check). He drank some water and has added 12 grams with his two days of snacks. I'm just wondering what's to be expected of the poop process given the circumstances. Today is the 16th and no poop yet. Though I'm sure his metabolism is slowed to nearly a stand still. This is really all he's eaten since he started sleeping a lot except for nibbling a few veggies on occasion. I kinda feel like he would have liked a "real brumation." Also he seemed pretty pale when I took him out for a few mins today. But I'm guessing that's normal being hidden away from direct light? I think I mentioned, I have his lights on from 8am-6pm, off earlier (anywhere from 3-4pm) if his really zonked out. Knowing what I know now, given he had a clean fecal from the start, and as much as he's slept,I think I would have just shut his lights right down.
I guess that's just part of the experience huh?
