Per our vet. She did a fellowship at Lincoln Park Zoo for a year, with reptiles. I had so much fun telling her "Got it" with each suggestion she made for DD. UTH? Got it. Ceramic vs Heat Lamp? Ceramic. Newspaper Substrate? Yep. Hide on warm & cool sides? Yep. Spagnum Moss in warm hide? Yep. Temps. Good!
"It's really nice to meet someone that actually takes the time to find out what there BP needs. They are few and far between." Take the compliment guys, couldn't have done it with out you.
Apparently, DD is a BP that whistles right before a shed (due to loose shed around the nostrils), may do it everytime, may do it only once. I was so glad that we already had the vet appointment set up when he started to whistle last night. Thanks for the advise guys, you called it Adam.
For those of you reading this that haven't got a clue, don't assume that whistling is loose shed, take your BP to the vet. Better safe than sorry.
DD weighs 1.9 lbs, what is the conversion to grams? Also, vet gave me some vitamins to put on f/t when I switch from p/k (will try next feed). Said that the freezing process causes proteins to breakdown, but better to feed f/t because freezing kills any parasites that may be in the feed animal. Any input?
