About two weeks ago I noticed Kiwi was not eating much. Didnt touch her ckickets but just few (5) superworms and NO veggies. Then she got that cloudy colour skin like she's going to shed but then stopped. Honestly it returned to normal. That was odd.
She was in 30 gallon cage at the time she reached 16 in in lenght now..I assumed she was doing all these weird things cause her enviroment no longer suited her plus I was in the process getting her new one (it was late arriving).
Finally the new 75gallon viv did arrive and she now in it for the last 5 days but still didn't eat much. She was staying in the cool area of her cage and slept alot. I though she was going into brumation so I cranked her basting temps to 110F and the cooler area to 80-85F and she ate a little more that afternoon but not much more. At night I only let it go down to 75F. This morning again she is staying in the cool corner of her cage and only eating her (3)superworms but the cricket are all over her cage she's not interested or the veggies. No sign of shedding.
What's with her? Is she still in brumation or was? if so how long does it take for her to get out of it? She's pooping about twice a week. Should I be concerned and take her to the Vet? Or just wait till she settles into her new (extra large) Viv?
I"l be adding pic later tonight maybe that will help.
