ok UPDATE
female: no changes...pulled her out to inspect her and feed her...she ate a little, and basked for a day....but then went back in the stacks.....ive decided either she cant get comfortable because her logs are junk, or she may have some sort of bug......her lack of activity before the changes was believable due to what i believe to be improper husbandry....now that shes switched over, and still not doing much, i think a vet visit in in order to get her checked up and to get another fecal done......poor girl has had a very rough life, i rescued her a year ago after 5 long years of neglect....hopefully everything is alright with her....not sure how long she will make it since she was raised poorly, but im doing everything i can to give her the best life possible while i have the time
male: this guy is a freaking monster.....his behavior is a complete 180..... he attacks his feeders like hes never eaten before, his stomach is a bottomless pit (he is eating 8 adult dubia per feeding - they are the size of his head....or 25-30 supers when offered....each day).....he is more bold, he comes to the glass to visit when im sitting there (probably looking for food)....he uses his hot and cool side both equally throughout the day....spends a good hour or two per day on his 125* basking spot, soaking up the heat
all his old nasty dried out skin is finally shedding off and nice new colors are showing underneath.....he is literally thriving.....he is not the same herp AT ALL
couple new pics
....excuse the shed, hes in the process
dug himself a little trench next to his basking platform...he looks pretty irritated in this pic lol, i just got done misting him
pic to show his overall condition....i think he looks absolutely stunning....hes ~ 1 year old sub adult, he looks very healthy and i think hes doing great....hes growing like crazy too...hes come such a long way from the neglected little 3-4 month old beardie that he was when i got him....pretty sure if i didnt get him, the pet store would have put him down...between his missing leg, and his age (he was out of that "awww so tiny" stage).....best purchase ever....hes my favorite of my pets (even more than my boa lol, its close though)
