Update on Little Blue and his protruding parts

hhhsbandmom Aug 19, 2005 02:52 PM

So far so good. I took him to see my vet friend and he gave me some Batryl (probably not spelled correctly) and some kind of solution to drip on his balls each day. He recommended against soaking and said to try this solution first. He is in a smaller tank with paper towels instead of sand. His balls are getting smaller slowly, he hasn't been eating much since we put him in the other tank so I have started giving him crickets by hand. Other than not eating, he looks fine and still runs around all the time. I'm pretty sure he is getting plenty of water since the batryl is a tablet mixed with water and I give him 0.2 ml (I think) each day. Because the meds are mixed with water I am pretty sure he is getting plenty of fluids and he doesn't look dehydrated. I feed him in the mornings and he gets the meds at night. I will try and get some new pictures next week. Hope everyone has a good weekend.
