I don't use substrate, only mats (you know, the green/brown mats from PetCo), because Javi is a sloppy eater. Her idea of "hunting" involves smashing the prey into the ground, repeatedly. Inevitable impaction!
Javi will only eat hornworms and silkworms. She will never, ever eat a cricket, not even if I freeze them, kill them first, mutilate them, tongs, whatever. Like I said, she's a diva. She also likes swiss chard and arugula. She will violently attack any other green I present her with. Once, I gave her bok choy, and she poo'ed on it instantly. Glorious.

Right now, vet #3 says there's insufficient information for surgery. They don't know if surgery is even an option. This is why they're banking on a contrast CT, to show them what the damn thing is (aneurysm, cancer, whatever). I'm told that if it's an aneurysm, they probably won't operate.
tl;dr Until they can figure out what the masses are, no surgery will be performed.
I'll definitely try the honey thing! Recently I've been using warm/wet cotton rounds as compresses, to clean things up a bit.
