Question: Parmesitron Hongkongenesis - Huge - HELP!

[Calista]

I have three Parmesitron HongKongenesis. All three of them look like they have been blown up with air; however, they do not have bloat. I have cut back on feeding to twice a week. Does anyone have any suggestions? It is strange that two had these symptoms, and when I added a third, it happened to the third one.

I am almost convinced that they are in fact overweight. Does anyone have any recommendations/suggestions on how to slim them down.

At one time they were very interactive with me. Now it is actually difficult for them to get around and shed.

Would it be possible to provide some pictures?

How long have you had them? In your blog entry, you said that they don't have bloat because "They are not bloated all the way up to the neck or towards tail". However, this is not a very good way to diagnose. It is possible to have a form of bloat that does not affect the neck/tail. If they really look "blown up", I'd still consider bloat. Have you seen this:
Caudata Culture Articles: Bloat
The last photo on that page shows an animal with a type of bloat that did not affect the neck or tail.
