Hi Tracie, I'd like to thank you for your kind responses and advises. We put Star down on Tuesday before Thanksgiving :( because he could no longer hold himself up, and his eyes rolled back. He was very week on Monday and we took him back to the vet. His blood count was 14, and the vet gave...

Thank you, Tracie. He maintains his weight of 500 grams. We're glad that he's done with Fortaz, and we hope he will start eating his greens on his own soon. We'll keep you posted with his development. Thanks again!

A little update on Star. He's still not eating on his veggies on his own. He would eat some crickets or roaches, but not his veggies. The third blood test results came back and the vet said that his Heterophills and Lymphocytes were flipped. His tongue is pink, and he looks fine except that...

He continues to eat crickets on his own, but we still have to syringe-fed the veggies. His weight went up a little bit. It's a slow progress; nevertheless it's a progress. :-) We started him on probiotic, and we'll give him the last Fortaz shot tomorrow.

Thank you, Tracie. We will watch his calcium level. We will keep you posted with his condition.

Thank you, Tracie. He is getting better, and yesterday he ate 2 crickets by himself but we still syringe-fed him the veggie juice. Today he ate more crickets. He lost a little bit more weight, so we have to watch his weight and we don't want him to go lower than 480 gram. We went back to the...

Hi Tracie, Thank you for your kind response. We will go back to the vet on Monday, and we'd like to ask if we can stop the Fortaz. We also feed him dubia roaches about once a week, but his daily protein intake comes from crickets. He doesn't act stressed, and his beard is not dark. Here are...

Hello, It sounds like we have similar problems. viewtopic.php?f=45&t=251416 Did you have a blood test done? Did his tongue change white?

Thank you, CooperDragon. Before all of this we gave him a lot of veggies- turnip greens, collard greens, mustard greens, cillantro, bell peppers, carrots, spaghetti and butternut squash, etc. and the occasional fruit. He used to eat 10-15 med-large crickets a day. Now all we can get him to eat...

Hello, In July our 4-year old male stopped eating, and we took him to the vet. A blood test confirmed that he was anemic, and the vet gave 3 different shots that must be administered for 45 days - Fortaz (100 mg/ml) 0.18 ml every 3 days, Iron Dextran (200 mg/ml) 0.05 ml every 3 days, and 0.14...
