Well, my avic avic died yesterday. IDK what happened to it (him? her? IDK and now I never will). I thought s/he was in premolt, due to her not being able to climb well and refusing food. I noticed day before yesterday that her abdomen was really small, but I didn't know what to do about it and since she was still moving and I didn't want to stress her out more than I needed to I figured I'd wait another day or two before asking you guys for advice, make sure she wasn't just about to molt.
Well, last night I went to see how s/he was, and found her in a death curl. I have had such bad luck with avics. D: All three of the Ts that died were avics. So I am not getting anymore until I can figure out whatever it is that I am doing that has caused this. I don't want more avics to die on me needlessly. Anyway, sorry to post something sad on a day like today. But I am thankful that the other 13 or my Ts seem to be thriving.
I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. So I am scared for Skweezeme now. Skweezeme looks great. Nice fat abdomen, bright blue coloration. Wonderful tunnel web. I feed her/him a small to medium cricket once a week and she seems fine. I'm just really tired of seeing my Ts die on me.
I wonder if she wasn't getting enough ventilation. I had holes going all along the sides of her enclosure. I'll post some pics later. IDK. I am just sad about this, although I have been focused on other things, poor little Squirt was always in the back of my mind today.
I feel more like a newb than ever today. :8o:8o
