    Cleaned up the poop soup and gave her the final fortaz injection. Currently curled up in her pool. No pushing as of now. Hoping that having a large enough place to soak recently and having three broken teeth pulled from her face is solving the pushing issue. Cross your fingers with me

    She’s has now pooped in her water twice today. Never done this before in the 2.5yrs I’ve cared for her. No signs of pushing though so I guess I’ll take it lol

    Someone is trying her best to imitate a bird me thinks that what my cocktail would do every time I gave fresh water it was thanks for the drink poop :rolleyes: such a silly girl but yeah much better than mashing up her beautiful face.

    She's looking good! How long do you think the teeth have been broken? Was it lower teeth stuck in the upper jaw or was it teeth that had broken but were still being held in place by the gums?

    I am seriously wondering if it was the broke teeth that caused the pushing or the pushing that caused the broke teeth. I know if I had a tooth ache I would be climbing the walls for relief.

    It was three teeth in her upper jaw still lodged in her gum tissue. One just kind of fell out when I was applying her silvadiazine cream, the other two were noticeably loose but had to be pulled with tweezers. Hard to say how long they’ve been broken but I feel like they’d been bugging her for at least a month. This was about a week ago that I pulled the third tooth. Seems to be well on the mend now.

    Hard to say. What I do know is that she would almost always push as soon as she passed her previous meal and would keep pushing until fed again. She pooped yesterday and has not pushed at all last night! I really hope this means we’re in the home stretch

    I hope so. I’m really hoping your problems with her are over.

    This makes me wonder if after feeding they are less sensitive to pain till they finish digesting? IDK. Just one of the silly things I think about in these situations.

    Here is the complete thought here.

    1. Issue with teeth hurt so she is going nuts.
    2. Eats and food coma sets in and is less sensitive to the tooth pain.
    3. Pain comes back and rampage begins again.
    4. Gets fed again because of pushing and food coma provides temporary relief.


    All speculation but it might carry some weight. I would add checking teeth or other painful health issues to check when pushing begins.

    Best wishes with her.

    Was pushing a bit earlier tonight. Sure, 7 days since last feeding and it was only a jumbo rat. Thawed her a rat right now, blatantly uninterested in food. Temps are 78-84. Humidity 75%. Has big hide and same size water bowl. Climbing options. You name it. No idea what her deal is. Only thing I still haven’t tried is breeding her or an 8’ cage which is on the way.
