update on ichiro's eye

jsinger May 27, 2003 09:30 PM

it is now opened and now it got weirdish ...

one side is buglin, like the one in the lower posts, and one is slowly becoming normal again ... weird cham!

anyways ... i have a queation about my dwarfs

today one hissed, or at lest i think it was a hiss ... it started to shake a little, and the it make 2 little hissing' 'coughing' noises ... he was not eating or drinking, and it was when i walked into my room and looked into the enclosure ... is this 'normal'?

i was a little worried because i had never heard her hiss or shake before! it was the first time in nearly 2 weeks of owning them that i had even seen her shake or hiss or anything

anyways, what i am getting at is should i be worried? or should i just see if she does it again, and if it is constant take her to a vet

The shake/hiss thing may be the beginnnings of a territorial display. The cham was disturbed by you, and was starting to act defensively by 1)swaying like a leaf in a breeze, and 2) hissing at the intruder. Not certain, but this is a possibility.
