OK, here is another update.... He is pooping everyday and thats about it. I am giving him a little bit of Repta-aid everyday and it seems like he likes it. But He still wont eat any crickets. He ate 2 by himself the other day but thats it. I am still offering him fresh veggies everyday and am...

I am giving him yogurt with activia? That is what the vet said to use. Is that ok or no? I wont feed that to him any more if not. I am feeding him squash babyfood along with sweet potatoes. I have bought other kinds but haven't really tried any of them. He ended up eating 2 crickets by himself...

Sorry I haven't updated.... So I gave him a lot of pedialyte and yogurt and some baby food as well. I had to pry his mouth open (which was not fun!) and had to feed him through a syringe. I got home today with some repta-aid and dragon yummys and I looked at him and he is a lot better! I don't...

He didn't open up, I am sure he is stressed enough so I am going to just let him sleep and get some rest. I will try Repta-aid tomorrow.

Ok I will try that now, Yea I checked his temps with a probe therm and he is basking at about 105.... Ill try force feeding him and let you know how it goes....

Yea he was a reptile vet, no IV fluids! How do I force feed him he wont open his mouth?

I couldn't take him to the vet my sister had to do it. No he didn't check his fecal matter, he just said that he was way too skinny and dehydrated. Well I didn't need to pay for that lol! He was so skinny he didn't even show up on the scale, he's not even 10grams. I am going to get the repta aid...

The vet didn't say why he wasn't eating he just told me everything you guys told me. The vet gave me some dewormer but i have no idea how to make my BD eat it since he wont eat anything else. I got him pedilyte and yogurt and the vet gave me some kind of wet food. I have tried giving him...

I just checked it out, it seems like that would cure him. I will have my sister ask about that for me tomorrow. Thanks for the tip that looks like it might help tough guy out.

No I haven't. What is that?

Yea, He just got out of the bath. I haven't gave him apple sauce tho. I have been giving him baby food out of a dropper and he seems to like that a little bit but not much. He pooped 2 times yesterday, could he still have an impaction? He looks really skinny!

Tough guy has a vet appointment tomorrow morning. My lovely sister is taking him since I cannot. He has not pooped all day today, It doesn't look like he ate any of his veggies. I just put some crickets in his cage and he just sits there with his eyes half way closed. :banghead: :puke:

I am going through the same problem with my tough guy. But If you got him it probably is stress but you came to the right place to get help. I have been going through this for a while now and tough guy doesnt look so good so I am taking him to the vet tomorrow.

Yea I realize he can't lose any weight. I am trying to do everything I can! I am really greatfull for your help! I will keep giving him babyfood and keep bathing him on a regular basis. And I will be calling vets tomorrow on my lunch!

I gave him some baby food and he seemed to like that a little bit but not to much. He didn't move that much in the bath, he just tried to get out lol but he did seem a lot more relaxed then yesterday. I didn't think he was eating his greens until I actually saw him eat a small portion of a leaf...

He just pooped again! Its a greenish color? Does this mean he is eating some of his veggies?

Can you feed hatchlings pheonix worms?

OK, Here is today's update. First thing this morning he pooped, I cleaned it up gave him some crickets and fresh veggies. When I got home he was just hanging out on his log, right where he was when I left. It doesn't look like he ate any crickets or veggies. I got him out and gave him a bath...

OK, Maybe I will try some roaches. No I didn't have a cloth on his bottom. I will next time. Thanks for the advice!

No he just sat there and when he saw me he just swam to the edge and wanted to get out. I hope he starts eating greens, That would be good. Can you feed small roaches to them? I heard roaches are alot better to feed them but I dont know if they are good for hatchlings?
