hello, lurker here..

got a tokay from craigslist, was kept in a ~10 gallon with a corn snake (whole shed stuck to glass - washywashy)

was wondering if she looks skinny to anyone? No idea on age. Ate a few crickets last night so can't be doing that poorly.

here's the size of the tank, which i'll upend later, and what i put in there for the evening.. going out in a bit for a pothos or something else bushy and a low watt bulb.. take tubing to sides..




...anyway it sounds like i have forfeit my food for the day.. gf was bit by tokay while petting.. so off to steal my food back

Shes/ he is underweight but not too terribly so. You need a much much larger tank though. Something vertical at Least 24-36" high.

After sharing a 10 gallon with a snake, your tank must seem like paradise.

Hello,

Not bad. We've seen far worse recently and yes I've seen Tokay kept with a cornsnake from a Craig's list add too. Hmmmm.

Gutloading your crickets for at least 24 hours and dusting them with a good calcium/d3 powder will also work wonders on improving it's health.

Good luck!
