Thanks Heath,
She ate again last night . She had a ball chasing a wax worm moth around her enclosure.
I watched her catch it!
I still can not believe she went more then an 7 weeks w/out hunting for her own food.
I had a feeling she was on the mend when I started to see her- still up - again in the morning.
I get up 5:30-- 6 am. ; she was always- still up- when she was w/ the red eyes.
This behavior rarely ever occurred in her new enclosure until 2 weeks ago.
I learned a lot form all of this.
We know changing their environment is extremely stressful; but more specifically, if the environment they are in at the time is NOT stressful to them, I think it makes the adjustment worse? I don't know if it is possible, but the "community" within the enclosure must create responses ,behaviors, reactions they become very used to. As a result of moving her ( alone) dynamics within her enclosure changed radically and abruptly. In retrospect her activity was definitively affected by the move. As if she were sulking? I don't think she simply became ill. Her "illness" ( ie no appetite and diarrhea) was an opportunistic one because of the stress of a very different environment regarding population. Other forum members, I highly respect, kept ( politely) telling me it had to be "something else". ie temp/ humidity? All the parameters w/in her enclosure were as identical as a human could make them, right down to plant inventory, automatic misting , lighting etc.
Have a great weekend? I hope you have some holiday time off w/ your family.
I was thinking , maybe someday we could meet at he Hamburg show in PA?
That would be a long drive/east for you though, as it's near Allentown. It is about 3 1/2- 4 hr drive for me w/ the usual NY/ NJ traffic.
We could buy lunch for Novy !!!!![]()
And you could buy more frogs !!!!!!!!!! : excitement:
