Re: 10/23 Crushy amps 365 +2 164 dipping again??

Try a tsp or two of something a little higher carb if you have it. Maybe MC or higher carb LC if you have it might ease him down.

No need to take the expressway to the lagoon Crushy.

good idea Wendy! thanks!

I just made his +3 meal MC (mixed HC and LC together)

hopefully that helps
 
Re: 10/23 Crushy amps 365 +2 164 dipping again??

I hope he slows it down a bit, so that you can catch your breath!
 
Re: 10/23 Crushy amps 365 +2 164 dipping again??

Have you tried the stern approach, Michele? Get him looking at you...look very angry...shake your finger at him while saying "Crushy!!...KNOCK IT OFF...NOW!!"

See if that helps :lol:

I hope doing more of an "early intervention" by feeding something medium carb will slow that drop some and give you a nice surf instead of a repeat of yesterday's. There's probably still some shed action going on from the 1.25 dose along with breaking the bounce, so it could be a crazy cycle.

Be good Crushy...please!!! Your mamabean needs a break!!
 
Re: 10/23 Crushy amps 365 +2 164 +3 142

you and me both Lara!

Haha Chris! he'd probably just bat at my finger!

his +3 was 142 (took it 20 mins after he ate the mc food) *whew*

Im wondering if a higher low carb food at +3 on a regular basis is not a bad idea...... hmmm
 
Re: 10/23 Crushy amps 365 +2 164 dipping again??

OY! Poor Michele.

I think Wendy is right...MC is a great idea.
He doesn't even let you fine tune one experiment (feeding +1,+2,+3) before he needs another experiment.
keeping you on your toes..I keep saying.

2 things:
1) So glad if he's diving it is during daytime again.
2) Saw this on your SS comments 10/15- "fed whole can of HC (3 oz) @ 39. he looked STARVING...was overkill"
Note to self! Maybe if he dives again....go a little easier. (more experiments)

Remember the SS I showed you. Wouldn't it be great if he is heading there? Maybe he is breaking through. Let's hope so.
Just need his bouncy-bouncy to level off in the meantime. confused_cat Hope you can find the right fudz balance to help that along.
 
Re: 10/23 Crushy amps 365 +2 164 +3 142

I remember that SS Betty! it gave me hope! was the cat's name Max? It looked similar to Crushy's with all the bouncing....I so hope he breaks through soon

I do feel like Im just kind of along for the ride in all this though! Im definitely not driving this ship!

Good that you realize that. It's Cap'n Crushy, and you're the First Mate.
 
exactly, I just steer and try to avoid ice bergs...

looks like he's opted for calmer seas today....nice string of blues!
 
I KNOW!...flat blue surf...not too bad. can't complain about that. I bet he is feeling pretty darn good.

this is what you were trying for with the feeding time experiment, no? Flatten him out THEN bring him down.

Looks good to me.

(afraid to say anything that might jinx)
 
yes a flatter curve was what I was hoping for with the feeding experiment.

he did get into a little yellow just now, but thats ok

I think Im on to something with feeding a little higher low carb food at +3!

(just not the whole can!) :-D
Click to expand...

yes I KNOW I shouldnt have given the whole can. It was a teeny can though (3 oz). and I only did it because freaked out. Yesterday after he continued to go down after 4 spoonfuls of HC and was acting just a little too sleepy for my comfort. Yea I freaked and gave him the whole can. live and learn.
 
easy for me to say...I probably would have done it too. lol.

..then another on top. after I freaked.


who knows..maybe it just takes him a little longer for the HC to show up?

he keeps me indirectly exhilarated as it is. You're the Crushy expert.
 
its odd... a few times he came up right away with just a little HC another time it took a little more, but yesterday it seemed to take a lot. I guess it depends on how fast and hard he's dropping.
