Update: Good day everyone. This morning, I filled up a 3.0 ml syringe with a delicious blend of dandelion green leaf powder, bee pollen, vitamins, calcium without d3, spirulina powder, and spring water. He left a 1/2 ml of slurry this morning. He's standing proud of himself.
What a spoiled rotten brat who is well-loved. :lol:
This is going to be very funny. Prepped with my lovely cell phone at a moment's notice in case he ever decides to show off his mouth or yawns. He opened his mouth and I readied my phone and rushed over, only for him to snap his mouth shut. I started to tell him to open his mouth. No luck in taking a photo. :lol:
So I enlisted my Mom to help me get him to open his mouth. She does all types of silly things which resulted in him doing this :roll: with his eyes. When Mom couldn't get him to open his mouth, she left and shrugged.
Then he decided now was the time to :lurk: around his tank talking to his donkey photo about how foolish we are. But then he decided after :lurk: he wanted to on his hammock several times to show that he wasn't :twisted: done with his last thing. :mrgreen: Yawning widely and not giving me a chance to snap a photo.
He ate 6.0 ml(s) of reptaboost, dandelion leaf powder, spirulina, baby food butternut squash water (Made out of water and baby food-Juice). He ate an adult female dubia roach too. His mouth is looking better each day.
I'm glad too. I was worried that he wasn't getting enough to eat, getting enough water, and worrying about other things too. I haven't been able to get a sample off to the vet yet. I was going to wait until next month to get a fecal. I made a plan to get it last week, but he didn't go until yesterday.
Weaning him off of slurries. He ate 2.0 ml of slurry and a few bites of turnip greens spritzed with water and bee pollen. He did the same thing at breakfast. It's looking real good. Now, I have to get a poo sample to the vet to see if he's clear of parasites and whipworms. (I have had to take care of his mouth first before I ran a fecal to the vet.)
