Turning "blue"

Postby yankeefan » Mon Mar 24, 2008 6:47 am

I checked the caresheet and back pages - thought I remembered something about this - so forgive me if I can't find it. Peyton's front legs and tip of her nose seem to be turning blue... her legs were always grayish but are darker and her nose has a blue tint on some scales. I tried to take a pic but it dosen't really show, I will try again. She is active, eating well, very cuddly and sweet (she is handled daily, usually several times) - she does bury herself a lot, but that is not new. We love her tons and I guess I worry - especially if I read of an unexpected death on our forum! THANKS MY FREINDS! Happy Easter!!

Do you feed Blue berries?
Do you use newspaper?
Has anyone in the house tried coloring in your bluey?
Does your bluey like Kablooeys?
Does your bluey like Blue M&Ms?

I use a combo of white & tan carefresh on warm side and reptibark on cool side. Maybe Zach is right, adult colors.......... I will try for another pic, thanks!

well the blue carefresh is valid, so is the blue berries and newspaper calls.

You are right - I am slightly insane - but it gets me through each day. :D
Hilarious on the other hand - I'm not hapy about this - i'm not here for your amusement!!! Just Zachs. :P


OK OK OK - I am here for your amusement. but don't tell everyone.
