[QUOTE="Seekeroftruth, post: 198861, member: 33210"] Its not a mature male. Its a juvenile so its got a ways to go. It came back to life. I moved it in the nicu so that I could retrieve it in order to feed it in a pinch hold. I was not able to get it to eat though. it will bite down on the food but it wont eat it. I disagree about the icu. DKS tends to cause dehydration and despite not eating, getting the fluids seems to have helped as well as most probably getting it out of substrate which likely still has the parfume chemicals in it. When i got it out of its enclosure it was too weak to even stand, let alone use a water dish. Its not fat enough to make it through its next molt if i cant get it to eat though. I rehoused three of my other T's but i dont know what to do about most of them because so many are in pre molt. :( Whatever i don't rehouse i will be hoping the chemicals will just evaporate of their enclosures. I hope i don't regret not rehousing them. [/QUOTE]
