Hello,
I am new here and also new to having a Newt. well heres the scoop, as of now i have 1 male chinese fire belly Newt, i had another but he commited suicide....
for the last month since my newt has been alone, he has stopped eating and stays out of the water on land most of the time. very unuasual for him.
i have tried pellets, crickets, bloodworms, and brine shrimp. he is not interested in anything. he has not been droping weight to fast, he seems like he slightly lost weight.
i am not sure what else to do.... i am working on getting him another male friend. i just found a connection to hopefully get a healthy one. the one pet store that does have them around here does not keep them in sanitary good conditions and all of them are as skinny as a toothe pick! it is just horrible.... and no matter what i say nobody takes action.
but anyway any help to get my Alfredo to start eating agian would be great. as a responsible Newt parent i was to do what it takes to provide the best life for him.
Thank you
