ok.. i am getting so frustrated and concerned about these 4 hatchlings i have left.
to give the run down...
they are 8 weeks old.
#1 - no shed / not eating
#2 - no shed / got to eat once.. now wont eat
#3 - 1 shed / not eating
#5 - 1 shed / not eating
i have been doing the bathin in warm water for the ones that havent shed. still no luck.
the click clack is at 30/31 deg on the warm end, and keeping moist (there is condensation present)
2 of them are lookin might thin and really starting to freak me out
to get them to feed.. i have
- pinned.. smashed the pinkies head
- rubbed into chickens for scent (cant find skinks in the tiny garden we have :|)
- dipped into tuna oil (someone just suggested this too me)
- tried live pinkies.
but no interest at all. if anything they avoid them.
have i really run out of options?
i got on holidays this Saturday and i really didn't expect to have them this long.
will my next step be to force feed?
if so, who can do this?
