Posted by: boredfoot at Fri Nov 24 07:22:18 2006 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by boredfoot ] I just got a new baby ball three days ago. The substrate material in her tank is finely shaved cyress mulch, not chips. Trouble is, the baby likes to burrow in it and now has a lump of substrate somehow stuck on one side of her mouth. Like I said, it's very fine cypress shavings, so not a chunk stuck in there but more like pulp. She can close her mouth on one side, but the shavings are keeping her jaw partially open on the other side. Soaking her in her water bowl didn't seem to help. I don't want to stress her out more than necessary at this point (only had her three days and not yet tried to feed her). Any one have any ideas on what I can/should do here? I don't want to invite a mouth rot issue, but just don't know what to do. | ||
