I have writtten in about this before - when it first happened.
A versi I have raised since .5" recently molted and had lost a leg... also seemed to be dragging another as if not working well. Maybe 6-8 weeks ago.
I tried the wounded prey at first with limited success, but lately she has been dragging her butt around looking thin and walikng with some difficulty, but still able to get around. Otherwise looks good - color, abdomen small but not shrunken. Just not leaping at prey... often retreats from it.
Aside from ready clean water and occaisional misting, what else can I do?
Anyone have experience with another kind of prey she might take more readily? Otherwise I will just sit tight and offer food as before.
Thanks.
