    Corns are easy peasy compared to BP's (very adaptable and flexible and not nearly as sensitive or picky); it sounds like you have some mitigating circumstances here, even if it is just the stunted growth.

    He will be fine. Don't beat yourself up. Instead, put that energy towards figuring out what is going on and CONTINUING to do what's right for Corny.

    You are doing great, just keep it up.

    My pleasure, RE replying. I, and others on the forum, are here for you. Just keep us posted and we will happily help in any way we can!

    P.S. Corns are poop machines and drop some hellacious butt bombs! A sample will not be hard to get, agreed!


    thank you so so much, friend.

    shake it off, taylor!

    Hey Taylor, would you mind posting their ages and weights together? It would make it more beneficial I believe. If not would you mind sending me a pm instead? Thanks young lady either way! Again beautiful animals!

    Thank you very much !! Has your albino male been not eating in the winter yet? For me, I’ve noticed once they hit 700 grams (males) want to breed, not eat. But by June/July, they become eating machines. I just placed a big order with big cheese.

    he's done winter fasts for 2 years now, and yeah that's about the weight he started. he's such an unpredictable weirdo: he fasted from nov-feb then ate for a month straight, and has since gone back to fasting? lol. i caught him roaming this am. i just watch him and see if he comes nosing up to the front of the enclosure at night; he kinda lets me know when he's hungry. :rolleyes:

    My two oldest stop eating around January and don’t really get going again to July, I offer once a month just in case. Occasionally or extremely rarely one might do me a favor and eat. Only bad thing is I’m a little ocd with cleaning their cages, and I get kinda lazy over the winter only having to change water, lol.

    Hey tttaylorrr!

    How's Corny doing? Any news? Any improvement?

    Haven't heard an update so I wanted to check in.

    Hope everything is going well.
