So here I am again lmao, with my problem child. She was recently seen by the vet and declared parasite free but in the last week she's started going off her food. She'll take maybe one or two crickets whereas before she had 6 a day easily. She has to be coaxed into eating them too, before she would charge across the tank to get them. Otherwise her activity levels were fairly normal, and she's lost 1 gram in the last few days.
Today she had one cricket, and just squinted and shied away from offerings of mealies and even waxworms..
I had someone suggest maybe she's ovulating, but this poop has me doubting that's the cause.
Here's a fresh, seconds old poop, it stank, which I know is normal, but it's slightly green and looks borderline runny, so I'm worried about a bacterial or parasitic infection. Not sure how she'd have caught it except for via her food or maybe while she's out exploring, because there is cat hair around on bedding and such.
I'm going to continue to monitor her through the week and take her to the vet if she doesn't improve. I'm not sure what hours the vet is open until new year, but I'm going to shoot them an email asking.
