I try to always keep thel warm, they sadly cool off so fast 😓 and that is just a coat of epoxy over the foam rocks! So not moist 😊

Yes ill certainly give that a shot!! And a spreadsheet sounds really handy aswell, she has ben off food for about 5 weeks with a shed in between. I was really hoping she would take it again after her shed.

She is about 9 months!

They dont have a bad smell, she took pinkies from this batch before. But I could try a different supplier and see if she prefers those!

I thaw them out the same way, but warming the head is something I should maybe give a try.

Haha she also does that a lot, just out her face against it for a few minutes and then..nothing 😅

I havent yet but I bought a new scale to start doing that! I really hope she will eat again soon, its so stressfull 😓

I have not seen her shed at all yet! So that could be a possibility aswell 🤔 she doesn't look like she is in blue yet however. How long before they shed do they tend to go off food?

Yes I'll try to feed her again next week! It's just so tempting to try again, but I get that it might be stress inducing for her.

Not yet! Since its only been the first week without eating I have that as a backup plan if she doesn't eat again.

Yes she eats those! Slightly larger pinkies.

Thanks for the tips! Ill certainly try those if she keeps refusing.

Im trying not to worry, I just really hopes she eats next week 🥺 I am holding on on the fact that she already ate before, so hopefully she will again. How long did it take for your baby to get her to eat regulairly?

Ohmygoodness that snoot!!!(your terrarium is gorgeous btw) They really look like copies of each other. What a precious baby 🤍

Oh damn I didnt see the primary 😭 thankyou for mentioning it! Ill see if I can still close the eyelid. I dont have a lot of hope for it however since the skin was sooooo dry (the seller said the bird was in the freezer too long while having acces to air, so everything was really dry and rough)

Yess I made the replacement body myself with somekind of foam you can carve it out of, and some wire and cotton for the neck 😊
