    Behavior change in young female

    The past couple weeks my 11 month old female has started acting different. She tears up her cage...spreads her veggies from one side to the other, fecal matter gets spread around too, etc. When I am in the room she is very active running around, nose bumping the wall. I take her out and she...

    Need pain relief for hatchling with possible broken arm/hand

    I have a small hatchling who may have a broken front left hand or arm. I am not positive. It is too late to call the vet without waking her. He has uncurled his poor little hand as he sleeps on my thumb but before had he had it all balled up didn't open it and use it as he moved. It appears...

    RE: Pumpkin Still not well Need immediate Iron help.

    I have messaged Tracie but in case someone else can help a bit before she gets a chance to respond. Pumpkin weighs about 445 grams. She needs black cherry juice as Tracie said but how much and how often? Also, she is SEVERELY anemic. In a months time she has gone from a hemocrit of 27 to 12...

    Pumpkin Still not well

    My poor Pumpkin is still not doing well. Her belly is swollen...vet thinks she is producing eggs again because she is in same room as Popeye and she feels it is necessary to reproduce-she has been moved. She has a black beard all the time again. We took another blood sample to test and vet...

She is losing so much weight I am...

    Shaking her tailfeathers???

    My girl is gravid and it may be related to breeding but I am not sure. She started shaking her back half around this afternoon, over and over. She would rest a few than lift up a bit and shake her back half like she was trying to "shake something off". (Note: not the same as the twitch I see...

    Is it too soon to be digging again?

    My Pumpkin laid her first clutch of 17 eggs on 12/31. I know she is getting ready to lay another one but isn't it too soon for her to be digging and shying away from food again? It has only been 2 weeks. I can feel the eggs but they don't seem as large as last time when she laid her eggs...

    First time with gravid female

    I am fairly certain my girl's eggs (this time anyways) are going to be infertile but she is very gravid nonetheless. I got Pumpkin 4 weeks ago from a local guy selling her on craigslist. I know Popeye (my male) got ahold of her 2 weeks ago but I don't think he would have fertilized this round...
