[QUOTE="Sweetie_Cheeks, post: 2018535, member: 113555"] Betadine and repti safe in her baths, sometimes colloidal silver. I’ve been using potty pads as her substrate for a while now so that I can change them out frequently throughout the day (she likes to splash her water dish everywhere) her lighting is the Mega Ray 160 and I can’t remember yhe brand of her basking bulb but it’s 120 w. Humidity stays below 23% always, but usually is around 8%, which is low especially because she has a water dish always. I have 2 temp/analogs one in each side and also have a digital probe hygrometer but not mounted. I didn’t know it stayed in the tank, I thought it was to just check as needed. I’ll install it today. As far as her staples lately: wax worms (only thing she would eat) at one point. I also give her blue horned worms, crickets (rarely) super worms (which she refuses to eat now) and dubias (sometimes I waste my money, sometimes she will eat them) I’ve tried bsfl (she hates them) and silkworms she refuses. Greens include collard, mustard ,turnip. Arugula, kale, dandelion. Fruits: Everything she’s allowed to have and occasionally bananas and watermelon. HOWEVER: she WILL NOT eat any of the above at all anymore. No matter the combination/size/shape etc. I’ve wasted so much money and continue to do so and she REFUSES fruits and veggies if all kinds. The only 2 things she will show interest in (sometimes) is banana and watermelon (which I know is a rare treat). I have included supplements in her diet and if I blend everything into a smoothie and follow her around with a syringe for hours I can usually get her to eat some but it got ridiculous and was told by the vet that’s not normal to have to do that and they told me to stop and force her to eat fruits and veggies on her own (which never happened). I’ve tried everything under the sun but she’s stubborn. She does however: drink a ton of water from her dish. Every single day (several times actually) and I add supplements to that sometimes (drops made for there water with b vitamins n stuff). I’ve had her for almost 3 years and this skin thing has consistently been an issue for a year now and it’s at the point now that she doesn’t stop shedding at all. She sheds and starts re shedding the same spots almost immediately after. It’s insanity. My whole life everyday is consumed with trying to help her feel better, feeding her, bathing her, cleaning her house thoroughly (steam cleaning and scrubbing and baking) and I’ve come to the realization that it’s not getting any better. In fact: it’s getting worse I think. 7 different reptile specialists all together and a couple of them we had repeat visits…..no answers. I’m just at a complete loss. I’m begging for someone to help at this point 🙏🏼 what could it be? [/QUOTE]
