As i discussed in a previous post, she stopped eating crickets, now she has not eaten any mice in 4 days - She is eating turky daily, however in very small portions - like the size of half a pinky and she is 2 foot - She has been pooping daily but not very much - I tried bathing her today for like a half hour in warm water, however she has already burrowed for the day - I'm hoping she just needs to pass something still - Any thoughts ? _________________ 1.0.0 Ball Python "Albino"

Maybe I spoke too soon - I left the fuzzy that was in the enclosure all day, and after she burrowed - about a half hour later went to check and she was back out and the mouse had dissapeared - Still 1 fuzzy in 4 days is not like her appetite - I've been doing like 2 mice every other day, and turkey on the day in between - hmmm.. _________________ 1.0.0 Ball Python "Albino"

has it ever occured to you that perhaps your lizard may just be Full?
2 adult mice every other day is A LOT to feed an 2ft tegu.
unless you want her to be obese , feed her twice a week. hold off for another week and then try to feed her. if she doesnt eat. you need to take her to a vet.

No that never occured to me asshole lol - When it eats 2 "fuzzys" every other day for 4 months and all of a sudden stops "ding-ding" - something is going on - this is an old post anyhows, and we are back to feeding mice every other day as with both my tegus - They are growing and looking great - No obese Tegu's here ... _________________ 1.0.0 Ball Python "Albino"
