Hey guys, just wanted to drop in an update. We did end up purchasing a 3 month juvenile citrus beardie a few days after my last post, and she is thankfully doing great
- a HUGE change over the problems we've had with baby beardies. Her appetite seems to increase as the days go by - she ate 5-10 crickets a day when we first brought her home, now she's up to 20-40 a day! She still doesn't eat much of her greens, but what she doesn't eat goes straight to the dubia colony, so it's no big deal. She's still very skittish when we put a hand in the tank (which may be due to the full body shed she is just finishing) but we're being patient with her and going slow with it. We're still trying to get a *fresh* fecal sample to the vet for tests - she doesn't have a movement for 3-5 days at a time, and it's of course when we're at work, or on a Sunday when the vet is closed... she does this on purpose, I know it! Either way the vet said she looks very vibrant and healthy, and our husbandry seems right on.
She also said that next time I'm in she'll give me the info/links on the studies she was quoting from. Will update when we get fecal and virus results.
