My 1 month pup from store is eating frozen silversides great!!! the problem is that to me she looks skinny. Shes got a notch between her eyes that looks like a key whole, the old fashion type. Shes not very big could use all the help i can get shes our first ray. water peramitors are all good, thanks in advance.
 
Post a pic if you can. How often are you feeding her? captive bred?
 
sounds like dented forehead from being severely starved. if she is eating well, keep going. let her eat as much as she will before removing leftovers. if she starts putting on weight, awesome! if she continues to eat a lot and not put any weight on, she could have a parasite. feed her and watch her for the next couple of weeks.
a good sign is activeness and an appetite. if she has both of those, chances are she just hasn't been fed much in a while.
keep it up and hope to hear good news.
and pics! :D
 
Thanks will do, she seams to be more active lights off though not on the glass but kind of prowling around. I will see if i can post some pics of her over the next few days.
 
Took a few pics the other night of motororay. I've noticed that her forehead area has caved in and possibly hips are showing. She eats well and several times a day (silversides and worms). Any suggestions or ideas?
