Damnit-froggie…

I don’t know what to say, it seems like all have been covered.

You are missing something and I wish I knew what?

No dough armata are a difficult specie, they stress easy.

I feel spraying is stressful, but this I already mentioned.
I feel we must provide them a chance to use higher temps, this too I mentioned.
I know any handling will disrupt there cycling, this too I mentioned.

The husbandry of cb armatas will not be problematic, but the wild imports must be left alone, when I separate mine, I do it when they sleep, I don’t even handle them all I do is transfer them on any branch they are sleeping on.

Also my studies show no need to over do it with hydration, they need to dry regularly, preferably once a day for them to shed properly. This doesn’t mean to keep them dry, no reptiles should be kept dry. I feel retained sheds are detrimental to gravid females, I intend to study this in dept this up coming year.

I hope you will find the culprit and solve your problem pronto!
