So for those of you who haven't heard my golden Greek, Willow's, story here's the quick summary. The first two weeks she wouldn't eat or open her eyes, she was even scratching at her eyes a lot. After a vet visit it was suggested that I separate her from my other tort. Once separated she was active and would eat, she's become a pig. So that's the story, now here's where I'm in need of help.
When I got Willow she was only 22grams, during the two weeks she didn't eat she went down to 21grams. Since separating her she's only gained 3grams, it's been a month and a half since I've separated them so I'm starting to get worried. I feed her spring mix and Mazuri on a regular basis. And randomly during the week she'll get different weeds and flowers. Am I doing something wrong? Are there things I can feed her that will help her put on a little bit of weight?
My other question has to do with eye sight. She will be a good couple of inches away from her food and start biting at it. When she's close to it she'll bite at it and miss or bite next to it instead of directly at it. (Even though she has a hard time seeing it she manages to eat most of what I give her) Sometimes she walks into things, but most of the time she's really good at navigating through her enclosure. Could she be blind? Also, could this be why she's always scratching her eyes?
Thanks!
