Lately I have noticed my 11 year old girl is seemingly losing her eyesight. Since she was little, I have always hand fed her. Now she seems to go after my fingers or thumb instead of the Superworm I offer her. I have to time it just right so she gets the worm with her tongue, instead of my thumb...... :lol:
Besides an episode of lots of blood she threw up a few weeks ago (see my post in ER), she has been very healthy. She is alert, eats well and is strong. I was curious what the symptoms are for their end of life cycle. I have come to this forum off and on for a long time and have never seen anyone discuss losing their BD to old age. I assume as long as she is eating, she is ok, but her eyesight somewhat bothers me. It seem to be just a closeup thing, she still watches everything going on around her.
Here is a shot of her a couple of weeks ago catching some rays on her favorite piece of driftwood....
...and in her cage on her climbing rocks shortly after the blood episode. I think she still looks pretty good for an old lady.
