I just read your post on probiotics for Spike. Good idea. I wanted to order some silk worms last week but Coastal Silk worms and another place were out of them. I'll check tonight. Spike likes silk worms but he's been so sick he just lays there...this has been going on and off for a 2.5 weeks. When Spike starts to perk up, he picks his head up, and his body isn't floppy.....we take this indicator that he's getting better so we try to "help" him, by doing things that actually hurt him and make him floppy and listless again. He can't handle having a massage on his front, he can't take too high of heat, he can't take too much force feeding. I'm feeding him bee pollen and maybe I should try soy yogert with a little canned pumpkin and a touch of chicken baby food. I don't want to aspirate him.
I wanted to give Spike 2 days with very little manipulation, except my son holding, stroking and talking to him... Spike hears my son's voice, opens his eyes and I some how feel this gentle connection helps Spike and my son of course.
