I have heard good things, but never used it. Let us know.

Well, you know me - it might be a while.

Thank you. I'm not sure if it is male or female. His color has darkened on top, but without another clown, I'm not sure if they transform?

Either way it’s a good looking clown.

Seems fairly acute onset for that. Def not the prednisone if diabetic is fragile

Anything new?

Anything new?

Same. It really seems to be the right hind leg. He cant pick it up all the way and is unstable. Stairs are hard for him to navigate. Skeeter is 88lbs so we keep it to three to get out side and back in. Well be contacting vet tomorrow.

Good Morning

I am back

I know I am 80 posts behind. But

Welcome back!

Anything new?

I'm not so sure it is acute but something that has building up for a while. About month ago he was limping on his right hind leg but we chalked it up to he was playing with Loki and hurt it. This week he has been a little short with Loki as well

Generally a single clown will tend to go from juvenile, to male, to female naturally. The timing is a bit random. The social hierarchy in groups is what will suppress this sexual development. It keeps a second clown as a smaller male and any others (3+) will stay juvenile and not develop into a breeding male. If the female or male is removed or dies, of course, everyone moves up the chain to fill those roles.

I think I'm going to feed the tanks early today. I try to vary when we feed as much as what we feed. I love watching the feeding responses.

Feel weird (in a good way) for not going to work this morning?

Yes! It feels like I'm forgetting to be somewhere.

Enjoy your day!
