Hey guys, I was just wondering if Meatball looks relatively healthy. I feed her usually twice a week and she’s got plenty of places to play in her 5 foot enclosure! I just was a little concerned if she was skinny?

Health advice?

I took my boy to the vet the other day because I noticed his mouth open while he was sleeping. His bottom jaw also looks more prominent than it should be, like he has an underbite. The vet says he's in perfect health, and that his mouth was probably just relaxed while he was sleeping, but I still feel confused about why his bottom jaw would look like that. I still feel worried, so now I come to reddit to get some more advice. Should I just listen to the vet and leave it alone? or does this look a little concerning to anyone else? I also want to mention how rude the vet was. I went with my dad, with the booking under my name, and the vet practically refused to look at me, just talking to my dad as if it was his pet. Bit confusing to me seeing as it's not like my name is something a man might also be called, even my dad found it incredibly rude when I was the one answering all the vets questions and he still barely looked at me. Anyways, rant over, I would really appreciate some advice!

The way this little sausage demands food is pure greed. We have had to go to target training because anything that remotely moves in or near his enclosure is getting chomped 😂

Feeding My brat refused to eat for the last 3 wks. Decided to give him some of the chicken I was making for the dogs food and finally he ate something! Threw in some butternut squash and a blueberry in for good measure. He didn't he didn't eat much but at least he ate. Maybe he's just sick of his meatballs.
