Posted by: HecticDialectics at Wed Sep 13 19:19:53 2006 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by HecticDialectics ] Most veterinarians only spend a very limited time (few weeks) studying reptile care in vet school. Yes, that said reptile care, not individual care. Many MANY vets are misinformed/outdated about the issue of insect consumption and uros. A lot of resources even a few years ago said that they can consume bugs (because they will readily eat a bug... just like a cat will readily lick antifreeze because it tastes like sugar). Since then, it's been revealed that uros consume virtually no insect matter in the wild, and a heavy insect protein load can create digestion and kidney problems. | ||
