This is a conversation I was having with a friend about a versicolor who is about to die of old age. It will not eat and can hardly climb at all anymore, lil' bald guy has lost all color typical of versi... looks pooped!
We wondered (theoretically only) if it was kinder to freeze rather than watch the t slip off glass, wood and rocks.
(one suggested feed to another T, but idea wisely nixed before being considered by rest of Peanut Gallery)
FIRST: Please no radical preaching from left or right on this -
I am not trying to DECIDE to euthanize this T, only carry the conversation to the Boards.
We thought it was interesting but I will do no such thing.
(In fact, I gave this guy the penthouse tank and the best real-estate in the place for those golden weeks.)
SECOND: NO T's WILL BE EUTHANIZED HERE based on this theory.
I love animals and this is not the place to remind us to "think of the children" As this is the "Discussion" forum, we just wondered what others thought.
We remembered hearing someone talk about this a while ago, but did not pay much attention to subject at the time.
Watching the versi slip off the glass all day has gotten us wondering what to do for the little guy. I am more inclined to buy him a tiny Porche for his "grey hair and age-crisis" period and find him some young versi-babes, but that is for another discussion thread.
Anyone ever do this?
