Im not even sure which forum to post this in so mods. please feel free to move it. My baby Skooter is not growing. We got her in January and were told she was about 2 months old. She was 7 inches long when we got her and now.... 6 1/2 months later, she has grown a half an inch. Im at my wits end. She has been to the vets and we have had fecals done. She still has coccidia which we are treating again but why isnt she growing??? The first fecal we had done they told me she had coccidia and pinworms but the coccidia levels were so high they treated that first. Her second fecal the pinworm levels were down but the coccidia was still high and thats why the vet is treating her again. Her appetite is great although I dont think she eats enough crickets. She probably eats an average of 50 a day. She has a Reptisun 10.0 and I check her temps constantly. She is in a 29 gallon viv right now. I havent upgraded her to a bigger home yet because she just hasnt grown. She is offered veggies daily and she eats some. She gets calcium and vitamins as suggested on this site. I thought that I had learned so much after all the mistakes I made with Rocco before finding this site but im just stumped. The vet cant help and im hoping you guys can. Am I doing something wrong? Or is there something else I need to be doing? She is the cutest lil thing but I want her to be a cute big thing! LOL! Thanks everyone for your help in advance.
