She still has not pooped... I'v been massagingher tummy and there has been a lump working it's way down!!!! Hopefully she will poop soon!!!!
Shes so adorable and is acting herself again.

Is she a boy or girl?

Ok so you feel a lump then?Ok no more solid food if she isnt pooping then you must stick to babyfood and now its urgent that we find out what those temps are.She is impacted and we have to clear it out before anything else happens and she needs the right temps for that to happen,ok?
Over hydration at this point is the least of your concerns the water is needed to get her to pass the impaction so dont worry about that.Are you using the olive oil?

I totally agree with Vicky, you need to clear her of that impaction. The more baths you give her, the better. Also, with the belly rubs, massage very gently on the right side from her armpit to vent area. You shouldn't give her anymore live feeders until she passes what she has inside her now. How long has it been since she's pooped?

 

[Thumbellina]

Yes.... I think she trys to poop because her tail goes up... I stopped with the solid food after the 1st day cause she didn't poop.
The temps are pretty consistant with being the same. Yes I'm using 2 drops of olive oil.

It's been about 2 weeks since she pooped :/

This is where I am getting confused,we dont know what the temps are?You have to get in there with the probe and give me exact temps please, understand that if they are not right she will never poop and we dont want to see that happen,ok?

 

[Thumbellina]

The temps are cooling since it is night but they are at 95, and 76

Using which thermometer?

 

[diamc]

What were the basking & cool side temps before you turned the lights off? This is important in order to help her to be able to pass the impaction.

 

[Thumbellina]

103.7 and 82....
I'm using 2 acurites or whatever the silver ones called

 

[diamc]

About how long had you waited with the thermometer in there before you got the final readings?

 

[Thumbellina]

I waited about an hour

 

[Thumbellina]

She just shook her tail back and forth... For like 10 seconds... Like a dog:/

 

[diamc]

ok, those temps are good, make sure she is basking for a while and give the frequent baths, massaging, couple drops of oil. Having you been mixing the oil with baby food for her to lick off? How is she doing now?

 

[Thumbellina]

Okay good... Yes she licks the food off my finger it has olive oil.
What about her tail shaking it scared me

 

[diamc]

Is her tail getting ready to shed perhaps? Is she active or just laying around?
