Thanks guys. My daughter is 10 and has opted for a proper funeral for him. I touched him just with my finger and he didn't move. I think that he has passed on. He did help me to become more comfortable handling Ts. I might even like to get one someday. I have really appreciated all of your...
Sorry guys, my phone is out and I am hardly ever on a computer anymore! He doesn't seem to have much of a change. I have been keeping his water full, but he hasn't ever moved towards it. I drop a couple drops of water in his mouth about every other day. I got a bigger tank for him and put a...
I have the cabinet cracked and the central air fan on. I ordered him a different tank and some coconut substrate that should be in today. As soon as I get it set up I'll get him into it and onto an open shelf in the kitchen. Would that be ok?
Not really. I turned him over and dripped some water in his mouth and sat him back inside. He was pretty curled up then and he's not as curled up now, so maybe a little more relaxed. He basically looks about the same.
Sounds like home! Especially the one street light! We do have Pizza Hut and DQ, but that's it as far as fast food.
I'm thinking mealworms are the way to go. I wish this guy could hold out long enough to enjoy them...
I will take another picture of him when I get back home. I just remember his legs were drawn closer to his body. They weren't actually touching him or under him.
I'm talking small town. Over an hour to Walmart small, one hardware store small, one feed store small, and no live bait small. I did look at mealworms on Amazon though and can get a ton of them for $11. I don't really want a ton of them and I'm not going to lie, they kinda gross me out, but...
Gosh, I sure hope it's just stress! I live in a tiny TX town and we don't have any kind of pet supplies here locally. I did some research in this forum though and I think I found something a little better for him to live in, even if it's temporary. I ordered an Exo Terra Faunarium (14"x9"x10")...
Well, I'm sad to report that he's not looking so great. I checked on him at lunch and he's starting to draw his legs in and kinda curl up. It's chilly here today (mid 40s), but it's almost 70 in my house. Poor guy. I ordered him some more comfy supplies, but he just doesn't look good. I...
Here he is this morning. Doesn't look like he's moved much since last night. Poor guy. I'm just leaving him in there and making sure he has water and a nice calm day today.
