When I left for work which was around 10 minutes after it happened she wasn’t breathing different than normal. It’s hard because for three years I’ve had her, she’s always taken some really deep breaths at times and looks like she’s struggling then between one breath and the next she’s back to...

Alice has been sick for quite some time. Last year she was diagnosed with severe MBD, and she’s still recovering. I’ve been giving her CC (and for awhile there Critical Care every other day, which is cc for herbivores). Today when I was syringe feeding her, I had finished giving her two tsp of...

If I do it every other day, will it feel like I’m starving her? But thank you, will do. Last January, her left arm had gotten pretty big and within a few days she went from shaking it to having it completely paralyzed. I had been dumb and thought she was in brumation, it was winter after all...

I went about 1 or 2 months without weighing Alice since her weight is relatively steady or at least appeared to be. However, I realized she was a bit heavy when putting her back today. She used to be 350, but she is now about 450. She’s 14 inches, which means she grown 2 inches since I got her 2...

Oh, okay. Thanks.

It’s too cold where I live right now to order bugs. Thank you, though.

She really likes hornworms but the past few times I’ve gotten them for her I’ve had to throw them out. That would be fine if they’re were like calci worms, but hornworms are so expensive and the only place I can get them for a reasonable price near me is over a half a hour away. I think I’m...

Yeah, she can chew. I’m giving her carnivore care and critical care by oxbow. She was moving around a bit today, but, again, I’ve been gone for awhile and my friend just stopped by every night to feed her so who knows how active she really is right now.

So I ended up getting her the Reptisun T5 fixture (has a reflector) and a T5 bulb. She’s had those in her tank for almost two weeks now, and I’ve been on vacation for 10 of those days, but her babysitter said she still refuses to eat. I got home today, and she seems a lot more livelier, however...

I will, thanks!

Ok thank you

Does her basking spot need to be directly covered by the UVB? Even if I put the UVB on top of the cage, I still can’t have it directly over the basking spot because the CHE isn’t in the tank. I only asked about the T5 reflector because the website has T8 and T5 reflectors and I didn’t know if...

Okay. I’ll order a reflector and bulb tonight then. I should get a T5 reflector, right? The fixture she has now was one that we had to pick up from petco (it’s actually for a fish tank) when her last one spontaneously broke, and she was very sick and couldn’t afford to go without UVB for the few...

On the website you gave me, the reflectors are for Arcadia fixtures. She doesn’t have an Arcadia fixture, but do you think they would still fit? Otherwise I had been looking at the Reptisun fixtures on Amazon and they’re $50 plus the $20 for a T5 bulb. Looking at her right now, and how she...

Oh, I see. The fixture will have to wait a second until I get paid, but I’ll get one. In your guys’ opinion, would you imagine that this is the problem and not her MBD? I have put so much money into her, and as I’m about to go to college I don’t have a whole bunch to spend right now. I’m...
