I guess today is eating bedding day lol. Quetzal got a small piece of cocohusk stuck in his mouth last night when I fed him and I think it was getting stuck in his trachea (or whatever you call the little tunnel where his tongue comes out). He startedyawning and flailing and popping really bad, it sounded like he was coughing almost. By the time I got the Q-tip to get his mouth open he'd stopped popping but was still flailing and rubbing his face on everything. Got it out alright but boy he was pissed afterwards. He curled up in his warm hide to be a grouch afterwards but for a while I was afraid he'd regurge from all the stress.
I checked him before leaving for work this afternoon, no regurge so I'm hoping his food stays in there and only comes out the southern end. I'm just afrais the whole ordeal made him headshy.

My bratty albino girl wrapped and then struck a little off, got a bit of mulch lodged pretty deep in her mouth. I used a chopstick - horizontally - to keep her from eating my hand off and pried it out.
She still ate the rat, afterward... piggy. U__U

Re: Bedding in mouth
Yeah I now have a plastic dinner plate that's getting put down over his bedding for him to eat on :P Just easier to deal with that way. Probably going to switch to a different bedding type when I get PVC cages.
