OK, she's fiesty, then we're better than that picture suggests. I would keep her misted a couple of times a day at the vary least. Does she have anything to sit on vertically besides the glass? Cork bark, slate, a pvc tube? Tokay do not usually sit on the bottom of the enclosure unless they have no other vertical hides or, they don't feel very good.

Do you have a national chain pet store near you? Also, the next time you are in Home Depot or Loews, pick up a pair of machanic's or utility gloves. They are not leather, but rather a thin synthetic material. They make it easier to handle new Tokay, and if they latch on, you can slip the glove off and leave them both in the enclosure.

Hello,

I'm to understand that if PetCo does not have reptile vitamins in stock, a local store called Fish & Pet does. The reason for the vites is to help her shed.

Petsmart and petco, neither carry liquid stuff. I got liquid Electrolyte/ Vitamin D3 at the local store if that helps? Its made by Exo Terra. Do you still want me to try and soak and feed her? They got a log stick thing which she was on last night, also a hanging plant on the glass and i put in a papertowel tube to climb.

You could try the drops while she is in the enclosure if you want. New Tokay will fly around a few times and then pose with their mouth gaping open in defense. You can try the drops then. If you are too frustrated at this point then I'd say mist her and leave her be for now.

I'd still get the gloves soon so you can work with them without getting bit.

I can be reached directly at 703-354-4440 if you wish.

[billewicz]

[Evozakira]

Ok so shes barely moving when i picked her up she didnt do anything while i soaked her. She tried to move a little after and opened her mouth just enough for water but thats it. She basicly looks like shes about to go like shes just givin up. She did poo on my glove what do i do with it so i can maybe take it in tomorrow? I dont know if she will survive the night.

It is actually possible to bring them back from the brink. We'll see how she is in the morning. We'll keep going until she gets better or she quits. Have a cricket ready next time you give her water & Electrolytes. She should open up when she senses a cricket at her nose.

Good luck,

Michael
