[Tidgy's Dad]

Excessive laziness or other excessive things ?

Nope, not this time, haven't touched a drop since Spain.

Hi, Roomies. Jacques has stopped eating and only wants to bask under her heat lamp. I’m very worried about her. There’s at least a possibility that I have caused her to have a Vitamin B deficiency (which makes them lose their appetite among other things) because the catfish that I gave her as the primary staple in her diet, contains an enzyme that destroys vitamin B. The other possibility, of course, is that she slowly developed an aspiration pneumonia after her near drowning in December.
I know we all make mistakes, but I just feel so bad. [emoji20] If I lose her, I WILL get another turtle, but I SO don’t want to lose my silly little diva. [emoji22]

Oh, no!
My stomach lurched when i read this.
Really, really hoping that she makes it, she is so adorable.
She pulled through in December, or at least seemed to, so i'm not giving up hope.
Come on, Jacques!

I've actually done quite a bit recently.
So that should last for the year!

Thank you, Adam!
Anthony P DID warn me back after the accident, that turtles can have a near-drowning, appear to recover completely, only go downhill later. I'm hoping for the best, and will continue to do whatever I can.
I can NOT afford to take her to the exotics vet at the veterinary school, and I don't know that they would be able to do much anyway.

I will try to stimulate her with some more guppies. She really went after them, and got one, if you recall. Since I feel her life depends on her eating and/or getting back into normal turtle behavior, I will steel myself for guppy deaths, and will be grateful to them, as I was to the ghost shrimp when she first appeared to recover.

Yup, I remember Anthony P's warning.
I agree about the vets, I think it's down to you, Jacques and the advice you get in the turtles section.
Guppy deaths are acceptable in this case, i feel.

Adam.
Best name ever.

Welcome back Adam. Nice to see that you weren't abducted.[emoji6]

 

[CarolM]

Yes I'm ok. Than you for asking.

Oh glad to see that.

 

[CarolM]

Darklord!

That too. [emoji1]

 

[CarolM]

Gosh, welcome back Stuart!
It must be six months!

Getting the posts mixed up. - 1

 

[CarolM]

I see him!!!!

Well done Dan. You and JoesMum saw him straight away.

 

[CarolM]

I'm the same.
Three pairs of glasses.
Sometimes all at once.

Oh my word. I am barely coping with two and you and Yvonne both have three. That would drive me insane.

 

[CarolM]

Yes indeed. When you cut the garlic and and the onoin in pieces and put them to the honey you get a wonderful anti - cough medicine after a few hours. Drinking lemon with hot water is good too.

Garlic and onion. Must try that one. Although people would have to stay away because my breath will stink.

 

[CarolM]

No, I had no problems.

You were one of the lucky ones then. I thought one of those other sites were jealous of TFO and were trying to sabotage it.

 

[CarolM]

Amazing!
You got it exactly right!

Whahaha. Sometimes I am psychic.
