Update on Daigh Da'Bug.........

reiko Aug 01, 2003 02:42 PM

Well seems after his 3 day fasting hes back to normal, eating like a pig. Poor fellow..... this morning was rnning about, ran into his greens bowl, took a big bite and they were all dry from yesterday, he was not impressed(i put fresh ones in the morning and leave them till the next morning, they tend to dry overnight) so anyhow i went and got him a fresh bowl and the little guy went to town on them, he loves his collard greens best, its great to see a baby this age so excited about greens. Anyhow, im am almost positive he must have eaten something bad, im just glad hes fine now, i was really worried about the little guy, looks like parrot forumla, pedialyte, chicken and squash baby food and acidophilus has come through one more time, really helps babies through tough times.......

Did he eat a whole lot before he stopped eating? When Popeye was younger we mistakingly let him eat as many superworms as he wanted in 5 minutes and he did not eat for the next few days.

i got him here on july 3rd, he ate great from the begining and steadily until he just suddenly stopped, then the day after he stopped his eyes sank in and his fat pads seemingly sank in, then he went one more day, no eating but looked slightly better and then the next day, he was perfectly fine. During the time he didnt eat he gained i think 6 grams and half an inch and also went into shed,he was drinking and active the whole time as well, it could ahve been that shedding was making him miserable but it doesnt accout for him looking so terrible in the face, i think he ate something bad, perhaps a cricket that i missed died in his cage somewhere and he ate it, i just dont know what could have caused it, but now he is back to normal completely, he is due for a second fecal this coming week, the first was clear. Anyhow just glad he is better, these little guys just scare me to death...........
