I will agree whole heartedly with Linda The good bacteria can only help Oscar, Kayleigh Seeing as he's not eating that much, I'd put it in his water.

I was thinking, what if Oscar is trying to hibernate?

at those temps he should not be trying to hibernate and even if he was it would not be a good idea to let him so soon after treatment. If there is anyway you could get his enclousre outside, even for a short time you may see a change in him. If he has come from the wild he will be finding it particularly difficult to adjust, especially being on his own. Often another tort helps things along but you have the problem there of quarantine.

I'l drop in a shop and get a storage tub today, replicate his table and put him outside (mines too big to get out and too heavy, without emptying it). I'm also going in to see where my bloody light is, i ordered it last week from the shop only up the road
Thanks Sue I'd just ;like to add as well, that Oscar can go outside (not permanently but for long periods of time and under my sypervision). Thats not the problem. He freaks out when i take him outside, then bring him back in, causing him to sleep more and generally be more subdued. |

This evening, Oscar was bathed like normal. His right eye has been a little lazy and we think his coordination is out, causing him to give up after 4 bites and not been able to get any food. Anyway, i hand fed him and he ate 2 whole weed leaves AND he then went by himself and ate from his pansie plant in his enclosure!! I was really pleased. He still only stayed up 10 minutes after his bath and dug back down but atleast i know he has some food in his tummy
Avipro is on its way and new, extra lighting is being fit to his enclosure in the morning! Things are looking a little mor hopefull Also, i think Oscars eyes don't seem as wide as they usually do, (i get paranoid that they are a little puff) his right deffinately takes longer to open. Any ideas on how i can resolve this? They don't seem *that* puffy though, just not big and bright... |
