Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.
I cant seem to get my baby savannah monitor to eat anything, her basking spot is about 105 and the other end of her cage is about 75-80 degrees. I have offered her crickets,mealworms, and pinkies but she doesn't seem to be interested. She is also acting quite lethargic and doesn't really move from under her hide.
How long have you had the monitor? A pic of the enclosure could be helpfull but if you cant post one can you give a detailed description...
While raising the basking temp could help i doubt thats the problem. I keep savannahs dry with a large low water dish and a concrete block for basking. The concrete retains heat allowing for both belly and overhead heat. Substrate can be newsprint dry soil even calci sand ( i think it sucks for them though) my temps run 80 cool end to 110 at the basking spot.
If your enclosure is adequate it should be eating like a pig.
Im thinking stress.. Cats dogs loud kids your hands...your massive looming figure glaring at it maliciously could be knocking her down...Lol.. Try reduceing environmental stress if possible.
She could also be dehydrated try a short soak in a half inch of water for half an hour or so. Is he pooping? Is she housed on substrate that is large enough to swallow but not pass? It could be an impaction..
Theres a million things it could be but we need more background info on her to help. My guess though would be stress.. Wich in turn could cause a parasite bloom causing symptoms that you are describing.. More info about her please!
