Since moving Teal'c he's been eating better and staying warmer. Even chasing his own bugs, though rather unsuccessful at catching them. But now he's pooping snot water. It does have a little bit of food in there, too. It doesn't have a smell... at least one that I can smell without putting my nose close to it (not happening). I read that he could be really hydrated (when I pinch his skin, it goes down faster, but not as fast as mine... maybe I should pinch Teyla for comparison). I also read that it could be because he's without a UV light. He's only been moved for a few days, but I didn't have an extra fixture like I thought I did, so I'll be heading to PetSmart before I come home. I have been taking him out for real sun, though.
I'm also going to put him on thicker food. I read at that site anapsid.org to make a slurry with Hill's a/d and veggie baby food. I think that would be more nutritious than all baby food. If he doesn't show some serious improvement soon, we'll be heading to the vet. After this, I will have done just about everything I can think of to get him well. I am EXTREMELY happy that he hasn't died on me, but this is no way to live. I almost feel like I'm torturing him, just keeping him alive, but not well. I can't keep it up. We need a change!
