My little versi

[unitard311]

My little versi sling "Gordo", has passed on. He molted on Saturday, was alive Wednesday, and I found him curled Wed. night. RIP my fuzzy little blue.

He just made it to his 5th instar.

poor baby, sorry to hear that, it's wierd how they can act healthy and then something just happens. I still miss my avic Gromit, he was so sweet.

None of my a.versicolors have died on me yet (knock on wood). I raised two from slings that are now sub-adult (2.5-3 inches) and I have 5 versi slings. Hope I didnt just curse myself by saying that .

Sorry to hear that. I always hear that avic slings are fragile, its why I ended up getting 3 versi slings all at once, in case I lost one or 2 of them...

Always sucks to lose a T, sorry for your loss.

sorry to hear that. How come I read more deaths in avic slings as compared to the terrestrial type slings... :?

Probably because versis are quite iffy regarding temperature/moisture in their enclosures. Apparently, a bit too much or too few and you get the SADS... I just hope that once I receive my A.versi and A. amazonica slings that I'll make everything as correct as possible.
