I think that one of my babies is having seizures??? It is eating fine, is hydrated, doesn't have Vitamin toxicity....but it every so often basks and its limbs twitch very slightly (front and back). When it is picked up during this state it almost listless, but it eyes are open....I have a challenged baby from another clutch but it was from a really small egg, this one is came from a large healthy egg and a relatively small clutch. I have picked my brain and can't figure out what is wrong my baby....Any help would be well received.
Thanks,
Jos

Hi
sounds like a uvb/uva shortest and calsium.
i have a feeling you not have a good uvb/uva light.
so the calsium you dusted not get free in his system.
a reptisun 5.0 r a powersun can help you.
after 3 weeks uv and calsium dusting 4,5 times a week and 2 times a week vitamins it must get away.
also the same symptoms can happen if you feed cricks bigger then the space between the eyes.

They're under a Murcury Vapor UVB/UVA bulb. I think now that I have finish freaking out that he had too large of a meal, as he is normally a bit of a pig, and is one of the largest babies. However, I thought that too large of a meal results in the paralaysis of the rear limbs and not the front???
