This new female pyxie I got is a real weirdo. She keeps trying to jump right out of the temporary KK (large in size) I'm using to treat her for chytrid fungus. Every time she jumps in the air she hits the top with a loud THUD and it's gonna drive me nuts all night! I do hope she's not gonna hurt herself this way!
I did just get her, so she's probably just stressed but she did eat a lot of nightcrawlers the same night I got her. I'm thinking I should move her into a larger chytrid cage if she's feeling cramped, which is probably why she's bumping her head on the ceiling like this. She doesn't seem to have any injuries, otherwise I'm sure why she would continue to do this to herself. I'm really worried though she may hurt herself!
EDIT: Actually, I think she already has. She has a very minor injury on her nose, it seems. I'd place her in that medium rubbermaid box I have for her, problem is I don't have any holes drilled in it yet and I don't have a drill here at home.
EDIT #2: OK now she's calmed down and sitting the wide water basin. her hose DOES look like it's bleeding but just a little. Anything I can do? Should I also attempt to do something about it before I continue the chytrid treatment (in case the water/Lamisil solution should cause an infection in this area)?
