I have a wild type girl who has just had about 20 eggs, which I know isn't many for an axi, seems to be very ill.
She goes to food and makes little feeble open mouth movements like a goldfish but its like there isnt any suction and she just gives up. This has been going on for almost 2 weeks now. She has a very swollen cloaca that looks like it has something stuck in it.. I've been very gently trying to help her get it out with a turkey bastor but to no avail. She also keeps passing a very gooey substance similar to the eggs goo but with no eggs. She has this today on her fingers and gills and I'm not sure if this is some sort of fungus or just the goo residue.
She has been in the fridge for five days, i took her out for one day to try and feed her and she did the little mouth movements then quickly gave up.
We change her water every day, her gills aren't forward and her tail is relaxed.
Any suggestions would be hugely appreciated!!
