When I first got Buddah, she had tremors. I went out to the store and bought the repcal with vit d3 and the vitamins with beta carotine. I dust with the calcium 5x a week 1 feeding a day and the vitamins 2x a week 1 feeding a day. I got the reptisun 10.0 uvb florecent tube and the closest she can get to it is 5". She is in a 20L tank. Basking temp 99 degrees F. Cool side is about 85 degrees F.
Now, all of the tremors have stopped for about a week and she was doing fine, eating more, regular bowel movements. But yesterday and today she has not eaten or gone to the bathroom for about 3 days. I think she ate about 5-6 crickets with in the last two days. When I went to get her out today she was a dark color and had really dark stress marks on her belly. I've been bathing her, hoping she would go to the bathroom, but nothing.
Now I have her on my chest and she seems to have relaxed and the stress marks have lightened.
Also, most of the crickets I put in her viv have died. I think I shook them too much when I was dusting.. oops.
Does anyone have any advice on how to get her to eat? She doesn't seem to like the undusted crickets neither.
Thanks so much!
