    Have you had her tested for parasites? trouble with pooping and stinky poo are typically related to an overload of parasites. Take a sample the next time she poos since it's so rarely and get it to a vet STAT. After 24hrs, the sample is no good. Refrigerate it between the time you collect it and...

    If it makes you feel any better, I started giving my two gravid females calcium every day because they need it for their eggs. They straight up didn't poop for a week! :? I stopped giving calcium for 2 days and on the third day, they both pooped in the bath. After that, I only gave it 3x a week...

    She's only been off the calcium less than a day. Be patient, it may take a day or two more. Just keep giving the olive oil 2x a day and bathe her once or twice a day as well.

    Don't worry, you're doing fine :) Yes, she should be allowed to eat whenever she wants and however much she wants to eat. They don't overeat typically. Just hold off on the calcium. Don't worry, she'll poop. This sounds like a minor case of constipation and believe me, it won't be the first time ;)

    No, keep giving her the worms as well as the greens. My adults don't eat much, this is normal. Just don't give her anymore calcium until she poops. I give 0.1ml of olive oil per 100 grams of weight. An average adult is somewhere from 400-600g so based on her weight, give her 0.4-0.6mg of the...

    I've never tried a spoon-too big. I usually use small medicine droppers, can you get one of those and try it? You can ease the dropper past her lips much easier than a spoon.

    try olive oil instead and just go ahead and open her mouth and put some inside. It's risky, but you can put the pumpkin or olive oil on your finger and just stuff it in her mouth. You might get bit though, so be prepared! :lol:

    Leftover live food in the tank?

    I don't put many crix in at a time on the rare occasion I feed them to my beardies and usually there are no strays because they eat them all. But with my geckos who were raised without much attention won't eat from the tongs so I have to leave the crix in there. I just put a few pieces of carrot...
