Old Fire Belly Won't eat

[DuBoseDolly]

He's around 3. And when I pick him up he feels so light and empty. It's so sad.

PS. I don't handle them often.

I've read fbts live 10-15 years at least. Maybe parasites idk? Do you make sure the others aren't eating his share of food? I hand feed my fbt's

did u try isolating him in a smaller container for feeding?

My understanding is three is young. As stated above. Hope he is better soon.

Someone told me they live about 5 years. Obviously that person didn't know what they were talking about...

If it was at a petstores, a lot of the employees don't really know and just tell you something. How's he doing?

I hand feed them too. I make sure that only one eats at a time. The other one isn't eating as much as he used to either. I use filtered water, could that be a problem? And the crickets I feed them have a healthy diet and get vitamins etc in their food. The terrarium is all water on the bottom but I have some large rocks on one side that they can climb up on - they rarely do though. I clean the terarrium once a week - is that too much, too little? They have been so healthy and have eaten heartily until recently, that's why I never changed anything about the terarrium or their food. Thanks so much for all y'alls advice.
