Re: All rounded help on newt/salamander care required!
Uh, I'm getting slightly worried ever since my family members mentioned 'bloat' and I found bloat articles. :/ Takorr is still very active, and I had to resist giving him more earthworms when he gives a certain face. However, I'm not sure if he's just plain plump or not, so I'd rather have some clarification.
Didn't take pics so I'd give a description. Since the last pic I posted, he's plumper on the whole after his forelimbs, his hindlimbs got really fattened up, as is his tail (like long and round). His forelimbs seem fine, though he put on a bit of meat since I got him, it's a lot thinner than his hindlimbs. His whole mid-area is round and smooth, when he turns lots of ribbed wrinkles appear. His head looks fine, his throat is smooth; there are still a line or two seen when he exhales. When I transfer him to a holding container to clean his tank, his throat seems more swollen out of water. He has grown brighter and more flashy spots all over his belly and tail, which can be seen even without shining a light over it. His toes are all stubby and cute-looking and healthy.
...I'll grab pics and post them later.
