I am so frustrated right now!! Dylan (3 and a half) has not eaten in a week, He has been treated and cleared of coccidia and pinworms, is on reptaid and probiotics.
I have tried tough love but even after a week he has not eaten then when I tried baby food the other day he gobbled it up!! He hides if the temp goes over 35*C (95*f?) but thats a good temp for an adult!
He is now afraid of me coz everytime I pick him up he gets a bath or meds!
I have tried everything and there is still no change!
Do you think I should get him a bigger viv with more floor space? go back to the vet? continue with "smoothies"
I tried making the smoothies chunky (leaving bits of crickets so he has to chew) he just spits those chunks out!
Please help!! I lay awake at night trying to figure this out - I am on the internet all the time to research ideas but have pulled up blanks!
When the temps are at 35*C he lays about for a while then goes to hide, I have to then increase the entire vivs temps up (even in the cool side where he hides) coz i'm afraid he wont digest his meds. I brought all new lights and he is on tile, vet checked for imapaction and constipation and he is clear.
he is not loosing weight but gaining VERY slowly, which to me indicates he must be getting ffod from somewhere......... gosh im confused!
How do I get him to eat soilds!!
