A time ago i had a Teratolepis female wich shake her leggs a bit.
I tought it was over after a while.
Today, i saw that female again shaking with the hind leggs, also with it her head now.
I picked up the animal to do a thorough healt check.
Suddenly it started to shake heavy, the hind leggs seem to be in a spasm, and crossed over each other, this situation stays on for a little time and at one moment the hole animal is in a spasm, looks like a seizure or on epileptic atack or something.
The animal was at that moment complete motionless, even when i put him back in it's viv.
After a while the animal seems to 'wake up', and walks back into his hiding spot, still a little shaken.
What is this? What can i do about it? Can it be cured?
I was thinking of a calcium problem, but they have plenty of calcium (dusting the feeder insects, water soluble calcium in the drinking water, a small dish with cuttle).
Please help me, it was a freaky sight.
