[QUOTE="Wildflower, post: 2033375, member: 118463"] Hi Tracie, Let me start by saying: I cannot thank you enough for helping me with this. YOU are making a difference and I so appreciate that! I should start from the beginning. Zero is male, almost 4 years old. Over the years, he has been fed crickets, dubias, collards, few other veggies/fruits, horn worms as treats, super worms. As you can imagine, he mostly ate the protein. Late last year, we noticed that he started going into his cave more hiding/sleeping, not eating much. We thought it possible he was going into brumation. Anyway, we ended up bringing him to vet 2/4/23 where he was diagnosed with fatty liver disease. The doc put him on Herbivore Critical Care and we did the best we could to get him to take as much as we could. Doc said strictly vegetarian, no more protein. After a while of this, he began doing better and started eating his salads again. Fast forward to around this fall, he's hiding more again and less appetite. We decided to get a checkup from a vet closer to us who did some lab work last Tuesday. Got results last Friday, but haven’t been successful in getting anyone to explain any of it to us (doc out of town). I’m so worried about my sweet boy. Every day, I see/hear conflicting info and every day that goes by I am worried I’m not doing things right for him/his situation. I don’t know whether he is trying to brumate, or sick, or both. I’m going to give you all the info I can on how he is being taken care of, including the lab work from the previous fatty liver diagnosis. I’ll also post pics of his tank. If you can give me any clarity at all, I would be forever grateful. I really love the little Booger so much. Thank you Tracie, Christel Zero is 21 3/4" long, weighs 562 Tank is 4 ft wide, 20" tall, 18"deep Left side is Reptisun 10 UVB Zoo Med 75 watt basking lamp 3 ft, 6000K LED Right side is Reptisun 10 UVB Heat lamp for night [/QUOTE]
