Yes, I assumed as much. Weird how the first poop was getting better then it was right back to making a big mess 😔

I didn't measure it out but if I were to be generous maybe under a tablespoon?

Aw man, I woke up to another stinky pile of diarrhea. It was just orangey this time.

Very fast results! She pooped today and it had a semi-solid shape! Much easier to clean up, if only she didn't do it on her rock :LOL: Thank you so much! How often should I feed her sweet potato?

Ran right to it! This girl is a FIEND for anything bright orange. :LOL:

I just looked it up and they're not even in the same family?! :oops: You learn something new everyday! Gonna see about getting one to top her salads and see if it helps, not sure when my family's next grocery run is so I asked my grandma if she has a spare :ROFLMAO:

I got it on video! She was just kinda looking at the wall, I'm not sure if she saw her reflection?

Xion's taken the last of her parasite medication and still has diarrhea...it's REAL stinky and watery. She's currently back to a 75w bulb since the 100w burnt out (gotta tell mom to not use temu lol) but the basking spot is up to temp (sometimes even gets to 112F, varies throughout the day) but...

I see it at least once a day, usually there won't be anything else going on around her enclosure. I'll try to see if I can catch it next time! The first few times it was more of a swatting motion though I wasn't sure if at the time if she had leftover fruit juices stuck on her claws since I...

Xion's started doing this recently, I can't tell if she's just really bad at waving or if there's something wrong with her arms. She's done it with both. While she's bobbed at her reflection before I've never seen her wave until recently. The dust & droplets are because this happened right...

I was carrying laundry past her enclosure when Xion started rapid fire swatting the air with one hand, kinda like a wave but like swatting a bug. Does it function like a wave but in a "PLEASE DON'T SQUISH ME WITH THAT GIANT BASKET" way?

So I've always been wondering how old Xion is. This has only gotten more confusing as the vet keeps changing her age on records (6 months to 9 months, no measuring or weighing) She was rescued from a garage, so nobody was able to tell me when they got her or how old she is. She was probably in...

A week later and it was still damp, but needed a refill. I saw 2 lil guys in there so they can get in just fine! No deaths either. Looks like I'll be using this going forward!

I found a solution to get her to stop rubbing her face on the glass! She still glass surfs but at least she isn't hurting herself. I just covered the glass a few inches from the bottom so instead she just keeps peeking over the edge at me 😂 good to know it's probably just spring zoomies though!

Temps are good, in fact the basking spot is finally around 100F-105F. UVB tube (Arcadia T5) is still good too. She was the same way back before the sand/soil mix too, when I cleaned out the previous owner's random scattering of fertilizer. Something about paper towel, she just seems to HATE it...

Sorry I've been making so many threads. For the duration of Xion's pinworm treatment I've replaced her substrate with paper towel, but she's been incredibly restless as a result. Throughout the day she'll run to the front of the tank and repeatedly try to get through the glass, scratching it...

Update, I decided to just take out the wooden structure for now. She's on paper towel now, deep cleaned the tank, but she doesn't seem to like it. After seeming okay for a bit, basking, eating, etc...she's decided to repeatedly launch herself at the walls? There's no strong smell or anything, I...

So Xion has pinworms and her substrate is a sand/soil mix. Should I clear out her tank and just go with paper towels until it clears up? Her basking spot is also on top of a wooden structure, I'm wondering if that could also be a possible hotspot for re-transmission. It's a pain to clean too. I...

Over a day later and it's still damp! Decided to add a couple extra layers for longevity. This might be looking to be a viable option!! There's still the question on the little guys though, maybe I could place a paper towel "ramp" in there to wick some of the moisture? 🤔

oh they can most definitely jump, I've seen Xion jump maybe almost a foot up in the air when she feels like it.
