Rearing phantasticus

wmerker Mar 27, 2006 10:24 PM

Hi:

I am working on rearing two hatchling phantasticus right now, and I am curious how other people set their animals up. Also, one of the babies appears to have sopme kind of neurologic problem, where it has trouble in locomotion, often rolls onto its back, and just behaves quite abnormally. Any ideas? Thanks for any insight!

Walter

i had a hatchling develop neurological problems about a year ago. it was having trouble with moving about, and it seemed to be in pain at times, and would bite at its own legs. that one didnt make it. not all of em do. but good luck. i should be back later with details on your rearing questions.

Thanks Mike!

I really appreciate the information; gosh, these guys are small! I now have three little babies (including the neurologic one). This information will help a lot!

Take care,

Walter
