Ok, my new rescues Lo and Lette are still being housed together. I know, I know. I'm getting another tank Sunday.
I went in the room just now where they are being housed and she has laid eggs. I was afraid that she was gravid, and now I know. She had laid 5 eggs, as of now. She is very, very skinny, even more than before. Now I am worried about her. I know she has MBD, so I have been giving as much calcium as their food will contain. I put them on a MVB yesterday.
What else can I do for her now? I don't know if she will continue to lay. She's very skinny, but she only weighed 275 grams before these 5 eggs. I hope she doesn't have any more. I have been trying to get her to eat butter worms. She was taking them, now she won't. I will keep trying. She is enjoying the super worms, but I won't give them very many at a time since I don't think they have ever been fed them before. They both seem to be pooping regularly, sometimes even in the bath.
Right now, the lights are off, but she is still awake. She's covered in stress marks, which she has not had once since I have gotten her. She black bearded me once, but only when I was feeling on her belly to see if she may be impacted. I have a 20l tank, and a few spare clamp lamps. I hate to remove Lo from the only good UVB that I think he has had in his life.
OMG, now I am panicking. Help!
