i got some great info from you guys...thanks so much!
the reason i am giving her so much fruit at this time is because it's about the only thing she will eat right now...i'd rather her eat something than nothing at all...i'll give her a lot more greens when her health is better. also, i'm giving her romaine (very little i might add) because she is used to it. i figure the new place is enough of a stress without the added stress of a completely new diet.
are sprouted foods good for igs?
her health began to decline BEFORE i took her into my home...i'm not sure if i made that clear before.
the vet that she went to is also the same vet that i take all my cold-blooded family members to. i've never had any problem with her before and she's always been right on the ball. so maybe my coworker misinterpreted some of the info. anyway, i will take her for a vet visit this week. i also have the priviledge of living an hour away from dr. frye ( i always forget his first name! a very respected herp vet).
do you guys think it's weird that she's never laid eggs before?? she's eight years old and never been gravid. she is obviously a female. hmmm...anyone else have experience like that? a barren ig?
thanks again for all your support (you guys have the nicest forum in here!)
