I am freaking out.
First, one of my pinktoes was acting weird today. His abdomen is small and his mouth is CAKED with dry white/off-white junk. No mistaking it, it's there, and something is clearly wrong. The other two he lives with are seemingly fine. All three shed this month.
It gets better. My OBT was dead next to his shed. I noticed today he was in the same position he had been in for three days and I pulled him out. He had wet around his mouth and was NOT in a death curl. It smelled weird also. However, 1) I think he might have died a few days ago, 2) I accidentally dropped his body in the water dish, which may have led to the wetness. It was clear, very wet looking, and only around his mouth, which was what I found weird about it. He also had a bit of white goo around one of his back legs. I can't decide if this means he had a bad molt, or if something else is wrong. The sickness of my pink toe is freaking me out pretty badly.
Are nematodes the ONLY thing that causes that white around the mouth? I have all my T's in one room, how can I protect them all?
