12 inches at 59 grams at approximately 6 to 7 months old. I know it might not sound great, but he gained 7 grams in two weeks and I'm ecstatic. He has been drinking 4ml of slurry two times a day. I ordered a few extra supplements to add to Sandile's slurry. Milk Thistle Seed Powder Dandelion...

Thanks Tracie! His urates are soft. Everything is soft, it didn't make sense he needed to strain. I have started giving him a bath every other day to allow him to drink some water it he is not getting enough from me since he is not eating any greens. While bathing last night he drank some...

Sandile tested positive for Adenovirus. As heartbreaking as this diagnosis is, it explains why this little tiger has had one issue after another. We've had a great weekend. Sandile got too bask in the sun run around in the yard and enjoy life too the best of his ability. He's getting use to...

I don't know for sure, but this panacur treatment is taking a toll on this guy. He is not very active today and is not interested in eating anything. He was given one ml of my concoction and then I thought I'd give him a bath, let me say I'm glad I did because this guy must have been dehydrated...

Fecal exam results came back positive for pin worms and coccidia. We're treating pin worms with panucure. His 1st dose was today and 2nd dose will be in 2 weeks. Doctor wants another check Sept 8th. I am being very conservative with the amount and size of dubias. I have given him 3 to 4ml of my...

Sandile has good color and no black beard. He didn't eat any greens but he did take one ml of his fluid three times yesterday. I would take him outside in the sun to do it which seemed to help. He doesn't particularly like getting his nutrition this way, but he's licking it up. We were able to...

Hi Tracie! He's been eating small amounts of greens since his last prolapse and yesterday morning I fed him four medium sized dubias and five baby super worms. He's offered Phoenix Worms daily but refuses to eat them unless they fly. I even offer him butter worms, but he is not interested...

I am stumped. I am not sure why all these things are happening to this baby. We just had another prolapse and of course it's "Saturday night". It took about 40 to 60 minutes to get the thing back in and I know he was in complete distress. He is now sleeping, his color is coming back and his...

Thanks for the replies. He is active and eating so apparently the issue was more traumatic for me. Not really because I can only imagine how uncomfortable and painful that must have been for him. He slept for the rest of the evening under his blanket. During the prolapse episode, he was baring...

Sandile prolapsed for a second time yesterday. The first time was about a couple months ago. I was so stressed about getting it back in, I didn't think to take a picture. He had been doing well.... Eating and being active. The next thing I see is a huge pick bulge coming from his vent. We...
