I am so happy tonight !!!. I have been worrying like mad about this little 6g baby of mine !. I decided to move her into a smaller rub but still put it inside the glass viv for extra security and have kept a close eye on her temps and apart from water change left her alone and the last couple of nights she has been exploring round and round in and out of her cold and warm hides. Well tonight at teatime she came out in full view had a drink then took a bath and has been very active so I decided to try and feed her again and hey presto a result !!!!I bought a packet of teeny tiny 2 day old pinkies and chose the smallest defrosted it and then heated it up with the hairdryer at first she just ignored it then I wiggled it gently and she came up and had a sniff but then wandered off so I just left it there shut the lid and stood back abit and after 2 circles of her rub she came back to it sniffed it a couple of times then Wham !!!.Sorry for the long post but I am such a happy mummy !!!!. On another note I think I am going to have to up Cornetto to 2 pinkies already (she has bigger ones than Maple) and tonights left virtually no bump at all. Is nearly 10 weeks old a little early as I don't want her to get fat !!!!. She was 18g last week so growing very fast !
Well that is the best news I have heard all week. I was concerned for your little girl as she is soooo tiny but things are looking good for her now. Keep up the hard work and I can see she is going to thrive
Hooray !!
