well i guess you can say i did a rescue mission cause i got celica from petco so i dont think i can do anything i guess for now i'll research more and learn more about them i went to another pet store just to look and they had some 6-8 month yellows but i just looked lol not sure if i wanna pay...
looks like their wont be an up date on how celica is doing cause i woke up this morning to soak her/him and found that celica died some time in the night. i dont think i will be getting another i really tried to keep celica happy but i guess i never did a good job. thanks everyone for your help...
i was thinking that but when i went to the pet store they only had one with a sulcata on it? or is it the same thing?
i was also thinking about just putting her into a quarantine tank with nothing but a food bowl. was i so pose to move the CHE and light over to the tank?
i was gonna try that tomorrow morning if that doesn't work i'm gonna put celica in a tank with nothing in it but a food tray and water for a month and switch out the mosser lee moss to orchid bark or something
well i'm not using a basking light but using a 18inch under cabinet light which isn't all that bright but enough to light the cool side up. I'm using a 60 watt heat emitter for a heat source and right under the CHE its in the low 90's-high 80's in the middle of the enclosure its in the mid 80's...
Sad Celica is still not eating not sure what to do now been doing everything i can. spring mix, strawberries, mangos, tomato's, bananas, cat food with calcium, and still nothing i've been just cycling threw the week and nothing.
every morning at 6:30am i turn on the light
put celica in a...
yah i was gonna take a trip out to home depot later on today as for leaving strawberries out i've done that left it out for Celica to eat for two days and nothing but i'm sure Celica will come around soon
i too was thinking of the zoo med fogger but i'm also using a 60 watt heat emitter was woundering if the both can be used together yah i live in hawaii but my red foot stay in the same bed room as me. i spray Celica's enclosure twice a day once in the morning and again before the sun goes down...
alright well up on till now still no eating but i think he/she will do so soon, i noticed that my humidity stays at 85%-80% all day but i dont trust these petco humidity and temp gauges are there any thing better then these? and i had this crazy idea about hooking up a humidifier/ fogger only...
well my uncle has a sulcata and seeing it from when it was just a hatchling to now after 8 years and knowing that it will out live us, it kindah made me think that it was pretty cool that it could be passed on to the next generation. i've owned two rats and the life span is just to short i guess...
lol we got poop!! did the normal thing i usually do in the morning but this time soaked him first thing then while he was soaking i misted the enclosure down and soon after soaking offered food he/she hasn't touched it yet but i think we're on the right path. only thing now though with him/her...
thank you for quick replies i have him/her in a 4'long by 2'wide by 12''high bookshelf i got from walmart, i lined it with vinyl, have a 60 watt heat emitter with 1/4'' plyboard 16''by2'wide across the top covering the hide area and used clear plexiglass for the remainder. I'm also using a 18''...
well i bought Celica a week and a half ago and ever since i brought him/her home she/he hasn't eaten anything i've tried romaine kale turnip greens and on fruit day i gave strawberries and still nothing today was greens so i cave her/him turnip greens and mix in those zoo med grass mix stuff...
