The new guy

She seems to be only interested in eating every other day. I haven't seen her poop yet, but that might be because her intestines are empty. I've seen Cypher go though.

Sorry did not mean to be rude, though you might know. Sorry again Kid.

Terrance:(

Cypher is doing well. He ate 10+ crickets today and went hunting. He looks like he's nearly shed out, but still has a bit clinging to him.

Ramoth is still quite sluggish, but she ate two or three crickets today, and used the bathroom last night. She spends most of her time sleeping, which is probably good since she's conserving energy.

Ho'kay. Ramoth is trying to go off food, so I'm having to force feed her. Snagged some wax worms and some reptaboost. Going to give some of that to her. I think she's just so weak that it's killed her food drive. Once I got some baby food down her yesterday, she really perked up.

glad to see and hear they are doing better...definitely look a lot more colorful than the original few pics!

Ramoth died this morning. I noticed yesterday that she was smelling like something dead, but I wasn't sure if it was her, or her toes. Either way, all I can really say is that I tried.

Aw im sorry to hear that raptor. At least you tried to save her more than the pet store did.

Cypher on the other hand, is a pig. 5 waxworms, 7 meal worms, and 4 crickets.

Pretty sure I know what killed Ramoth. Prior to boxing him up, Petco wormed him with panacur, and as far as I know, did not run a fecal, and probably didn't weigh him, either. Means I need to keep an eye on Cypher.

Might be noticing I'm referring to Ramoth as a "he" instead of a "she".

Well, Ramoth died while I was at class, and mom had a doctor appoint today. I got home just as my parents were leaving since they were going to take him back to the store for a refund. Another pet store, a much better one has another plated lizard, and so, they ended up getting her. With plated lizards, makes have a frill on their back legs. Ramoth had one, the new lizard doesn't.

So, the new girl. Much healthier. This means I potentially have a breeding pair. Currently, the two are in separate tanks in separate rooms. They won't meet up for about 90 days. I know she's healthy, I'm more wanting to make sure that Cypher doesn't have anything. This will also give him time to gain his weight back.

No new pictures this time around.

New girl is doing fine. She's hunting and eating, but spends most of her time burrowed down. Cypher is doing quite well. I weighed him tuesday and he was sitting at 76 grams. I weighed him yesterday and he was sitting at 80. That's probably because he's getting a large number of waxworms along with mealworms and some crickets.

I also got the novel idea to water down the calorie supplement a bit and inject the wax worms with it to give him a bit of a calorie boost. Still need to work out the kinks in the idea though.
