[Puppycut]

My girl who is a rescue and you all have helped me so much already,still hasnt pooped and all she does is sleep,not eating is this brumation? Not eating nothing. I am keeping her viv at right temps. I am a first time owner.
I have taken all the advice and did everything I am supposed too. Please tell me she will be ok

This could be brumation and she is just on a food strike.

Hello,

Remind me again, how old your girl Pixie is?
Many of them do go through brumation this time of year. You have had a fecal done, correct?
Since you have had trouble with her weight in the past, if you think she could be ill, it would
be a good idea to get a blood test on her.
Has she been exhibiting a black beard at all or is she losing weight?

I was told she was about four. Not cared for at all. I got her last September and it’s been a learning experience. She doesn’t seem to be losing weight. And this morning I gave her her last dose of panacure for pinworms. She hasn’t crapped since 9/21. Nor has she eaten a lot. I have given pedialyte to keep her hydrated and reptidrops I got from you. I am hoping she wants to eat some dubias but she doesn’t seem to want them. She has fresh greens daily. And calcium.

Hi, Since she is older I would say she is going through brumation especially if not losing weight. Just curious but have you been giving her any probiotics? Antibiotics will wipe out their digestive flora so its good idea to give probiotics to replenish. Give a boost in energy and appetite

Oh yes! I have benebac that she gets and also the repti drops hydration and yes I have probiotics. I just offered her dubia. Wants nothing to do with them. And brumation causes low appitite?

This is her this morning

Ok, awesome, you're on top of it Yes, Sadly it does because in their natural environment they go without food for months so its natural for them to not have a big appetite while brumating. You should still offer food every day in case she wants to come out and eat but its really okay if she does not. Main important thing is if she's not losing weight. Also, make sure she is hydrated as well so give her a nice warm bath and or keep up with offering water drops

Awe, she is such a cutie!

She has had one clutch since I have had her. So I hope her not eating is ok. I worry so much and love her so much.
