: I am relieved too !! Still keeping my eye on him
: though . Despite the cage Zeus was in he otherwise
: did get good food and was soaked on a regular basis by the shop owner . I think her paying attention to him has alot to do with his not being to shy .

I have to say that he is only fairly active. I am not too confident......:-(
Will try the worms next!

: Has yours been pretty active ? I hope he does allright for you .

: Kevin

: : : Well it has almost been a week since Zeus came home and he is doing well so fare . Tried butter crunch lettuce on him but he did not like it as well as romain .Some crickets got into his cage and have vanished so I know he likes them . Gonna try earth worms next a few other veggies he can eat . He has a place to soak in wich he seems to enjoy . He has become more active as time goes by which is realy encourageing . Also he still shows no sign of cold or other respatory probs so thats
: : : one more thing to be happy about .

: : : Also little Rocky is still chugging along . He eats untill there is no more to eat and is still very active . So All of us are happy all the way around.

: : : Kevin

: : Good to hear about Zeus doing well!
: : My homes hinge is VERY scared and didn't eat at all for 5 days but finally started taking food. I think he is still touch and go, though.....
: : Hope he makes it thru!
