Littlest Leo is freaking out....

SpikeNsquirt May 10, 2004 09:08 PM

Our smallest of the group is Sprite who is shedding for the first time since we have had him/her. She has shed all but her feet. She has a humid hide and we spray her or him as well, but the skin on the feet just isn't coming off, so my husband just put her in some water really shallow....any other suggestions if this doesn't work. She really hates the water.

we bought him and at first we didn't think he was going to make it. She was really small...not sure how old, but we had never owned one that small, but she'd eat and then throw it up. She wanted to eat anytime there was food, but she got sick....but now she is probably our best eater and keeping it down. She's funny because her cage is on the bottom level of the rack and when I'm on the computer and move my feet she thinks it food and stalks it...lol
