Re: an update!

now for my update on Sissle and his outbreak of skin rot.

i found the top half of a shed in the tank the other day. it looked quite fat so i thought it might have been Kias lol but sissle had a bit of shed round his waste so i cas a bit unsure. yesterday i found the bottom half of the shed still looking quite fat but woth signs of scale rot.
i kinda worked out that it was sissles at this point because kia has no signs but i have been treating them both. sissles rot has minimumised
he only has a bit left so i am realllllyyyyy chuffed lol but he wouldn't eat yesterday but i am putting that down to stress because he seems to be taking the treatment alot harder than kia and shes just a greedy so anyway lol.
i also fed the babies yesterday lol. 1 is in shed so nothing but the other had 1 quarter chopped lengthways of unscented pinkie. they are been kept in a tub about 1 foot by 8inches (ish) and about 8inches high. i have never seen them trying to escape over the top so after feeding i turned round for litterly 2 seconds to move the food plate and 1 was gone. i frantically searched the tub and it was gone. i had my hoover not far away (henry style-small pull along one) and spotted him just behind the wheel lol so i slowly moved the hoover and he just stayed there waiting to be picked up lol
anyway theres my ramble over with lol im happy and now i need to get ready for work.

Re: an update!

just to bore you guys a lil bit more.
i fed the tetras the other day and they ate a full pinkes in quarters and no scenting was needed yey soooo relieved. lol also found one tetra shed with one eye section. discovered it was still onnthe snake so tried rubbing gently near but nothing. will have to get some shed ease for them because i have a feeling boo the boa will need it.
i also took kia and sissle to the pet store for some advice and sissles scale rot is alot better but he still isnt eating and he also believes that there is a big chance he will be a daddy i really hope so xxx

Re: an update!

i got sissle a jucy lovely fuzzie fresh from the pet store today and he still isn't eating! i am worried now because he has lost a lot of weight now and kia is soo fat.

also just wondering if the male will still try and mate with the female if she is pregnant because he is sti;ll trying so i am begining to doubt the fact she is pregnant and thinking she is just fat.
