Frustrated with leo getting skinny. Lots of PICS

[Pinky81]

make the slurry the FULL slury..non of that baby food only crap. Go to the sticky and get all the ingredients make it up and start the slurry. Sometimes you need to just get them over the hump and let the medicine time to work.

Great job on the scale, keep records on a piece of paper near the tanks. How much each is eating and of what. Also make sure that your worms aren't escaping and hiding under things...I have found that those super worms can get out of many bowls. And like I said start feeding slurry to give these two a boost!

Good luck

Update

My Tremper albino seems do be doing much better now. I guess it was all about the food source for him/her. I kept on trying to feed meal worms, superworms, and wax worms and he/she didn't want any part of those. I tried crickets again after about a month and she has been attacking them for the past 3 days :0)

Now, for my Normal Leo, things still aren't going to well. She has tried to eat the crickets which I thought was a huge improvement. At least she was showing the will to eat and hunt. But, unfortunately she can't keep them down. Not even one. Not even a really small one.

Iv'e tried to make the slurry but, the best I could do was almost everything besides the hills A/D dog,cat food. You need a prescription in my area, and the two vets I went to said no for the slurry concoction, and the other said they would want to see the animal before giving me a can...that would end up being about 75.00 for a can, because I would have to pay for an exam that I don't want...all I want is the stupid can of food.

She is still very skinny, and has been acting a little out of the norm. She has her eyes closed 75% of the time.. is sleeping out in the open, on top of her warm hide (which she has never done), and pauses in weird random positions.
I have seen her drink water, but when she eats a small cricket it just won't stay down.

BTW, I went to REPTMART, And I have to say they are some of the nicest people. Very friendly and where concerned about my situation. They helped my out by giving me the crickets, small meal worms, some more panacur, and some vitamin dust with d3 all for FREE. I am very impressed with them, I had no clue one of the biggest reptile providers where 15 minutes down the road from me. If my experience with them is anything like the way the conduct the rest of there business then I highly recommend them. Just my 2cents.

Thanks for everyone who has been keep up-to-date with my situation and helping me out. I appreciate it very much.

Update.

Sadly, she didn't make it.

I tried everything that I could possibly do. Just an hour ago I was going to feed her some of her slurry. There she was laying lifelessly not breathing. I hoped she was getting better.

Thank you for all of those who posted on my thread to help me. I really appreciate it. I'm going to try to stay positive and focus on my tremper albino. Hopefully I can make her get nice and fat.

Again. Thanks to everyone.
