[QUOTE="SHBailey, post: 1968710, member: 89387"] Hi... So Puff's weight is up to 539 grams so he's doing well and even getting a fairly balanced diet lately although still more bugs than veggies, but at least he's eating any squash and greens at all. As of yesterday he's gone two days without eating and has been spending more time in his hide than usual lately, but I'm not too worried yet because his weight is up and recently he's been known to occasionally scarf over 40 small crickets in one meal. Usually we can trust his appetite to kick in when it needs to, so that's one thing that will help him survive if the adenovirus flares up again. My husband and I have both agreed that force feeding is off the table as an option. I suppose that Broly will start eating more greens again sometime in the future. They seem to go through phases. Puff was eating nothing but squash and greens for a couple of weeks after he got home from the "hospital," and we were worried about him. He finally started eating bugs again but continued to eat squash and greens along with them. I wonder if he was just listless and didn't have the energy to chase after small moving objects for a while, although it didn't seem to help if my husband caught the bugs and held them out to him. Not interested. We're glad the little worry factory is better now. :) Puff has also managed to get most if not all of his shedding done, except for the odd scale here and there. His skin turns grayish when he's getting ready to shed, so I don't get worried that it might be yellow fungus. Sounds like Broly's latest shed is going fairly well, except for the scary yellow color -- glad to hear that you ruled out fungus and can chalk it up to a shed. Your carnivorous plants sound interesting, although I'm sorry to hear that you lost some some of them to the winter. A nice way to keep the fly and mosquito population down. We've had a few of those in our house, now that the outside temperatures are staying above freezing, even at night. I don't mind the flies so much, but I agree with you that we can do without the mosquitoes. Alaska is famous for mosquitoes. They get through the winter because they have "antifreeze" in their eggs, and they breed in the puddles when breakup comes along. We could use a few carnivorous plants around here, but I don't think there are any species that can survive in this climate, although I should probably Google it because I could be wrong. :? Well, I guess that's enough rambling for one post -- all's well around here otherwise. Looking forward to seeing a new eye doctor later this month -- my glasses aren't getting it anymore and I can barely see what I'm typing. :mrgreen: [/QUOTE]
