Apricot has a good appetite, I'm happy for her. I hope she quickly regains muscle mass.

Me too. The little chit is trying to brumate on me though, I'm having a heck of a time trying to keep her from it. She just isn't strong enough yet to allow it.

Yeah, brumation is definitely not what she needs right now. Is she eating insects on a standard schedule for her age yet?

No, it's really random. I syringe feed her twice per day. Omnivore and 1 variety of baby food in the morning adding calcium to the Omnivore. And two varieties of baby food in the evening. She gets between 1 and 3 pipettes twice per day also.
She ate a second hornworm this evening so I'm just going to give her water. If I over feed her she vomits

I had to bathe her this evening, she pooped and had her tail in it. I sat her in the recliner so I could clean her habitat (after I bathed her) and she wanted down. I helped her get down and she was going after the dog (every beardie I've had goes after him for some reason) I tossed a hornworm out in front of her a little ways. She snatched it up with a quickness She would only eat one, but I'll call it a win! Progress at a minimum
If I can get her eating on her own consistently, I think she'll be ok

Beardies going after dogs....hilarious! Dogs either run or look back at them like WHAT IN THE WORLD...I'm only speaking based on YouTube videos.

When my beardies brumate, that's when I miss my dogs...I feel so abandoned

They fight for position on my chest when I have more than one on me lol. Someone always ends up pushed off the side and ends up under my arm they 100% display jealous tendencies.
