[maxman]

hi all,

i bought raptor 10 days ago and it was sub-adult,
first day seems okay and eat 10 crikets
second day another 10 crikets,
and until now, every single day she eats 5 crikets

BUT the problem is her tails is seems smaller and she can't shed properly

all the poo seems normal black and white.

NOW the question is What seems to bother her that she is not eating well ?

Have you been feeding her vitamins? long as she is eating she should be all right it takes a while for their tails to get fat, try feeding her wax worms only as a treat maybe 1 or 2 there full of fat. If she is having a problem shedding there may not be enough humidity for her, sit a moist hide in there if she wont go in it then mist the tank, humidity should be around 30-40% and the vitamins should help shedding as well.

Edit: make sure she is in a quiet part of the house high traffic areas like livings rooms can be stressing and feed them a variety of food mine gets tried of the same old thing, Waxworms, locust and mealworms are other good treats.

If she eats a lot, and the tail is getting smaller, the only thing I can think of is a parasite. I would take him to a vet if possible. Their tails shouldn't shrink if they're eating good. Do you have a scale? If so, do you know how much he weighs?
