I have rehabbed and dealt with many Sulcata in the past, and I have read that the redfoot are less zealous when it comes to feeding. I have also read that a RF over 2 years old only needs fed every couple of days? I keep food offered, but notice she does only eat this often. hmmm? She has been in her hide A LOT and i worried maybe she was getting ill or the change of house/climate/all around husbandry had a drastic effect on her.
I have been offering the good with some of the bad she was offered previously, but shes just not been interested the last couple of days to do anything but HIDE in her hide.
Her previous living situation was a 20 gallon tank with corncob bedding, on the floor with a heat lamp, no moisture, and only leaf lettuce as a diet, no calcium.
Of course ALL of this has been changed and she now gets outdoors, but maybe i changed everything too fast for her? She is either shy or not liking my system here? hmmmm?
She was tested for parasites, nothing, and I had her xrayed because I am a freak and she has no impaction. I have seen no stool in a couple of days, but shes been in the pen, and her stool was watery previously from her diet. Soaking every day because 1. she likes to dig in my yard and gets muddy, 2. I hope that she would poop already so I can stop being a freak!
