Sad to say, Rasputin is dead. He was starting to dissolve and nothing alive smells like that.

I did get all three Indos from the same place, same shipment, but the other two died within 3 weeks -- one was so badly damaged from being dropped it was a mercy buy, but Charlemaigne and Rasputin dying were a shock.

Ally, do you have your Indos in specific conditions? Maybe mine aren't right. All three died in the same ISO, but I've been checking the gauges and they are functioning properly, so I thought it might just be the Indos themselves needing something I'm not giving them.

I'm very sad about Rasputin. I thought he'd pull through, poor baby. He really needed to molt, his feet were all broken off, but he was a real trooper. It really puts me off trying to care for any more of them. but honestly, if I can't get them to live, what's happening to all the other ones from that store? It's not like I don't know what I'm doing...
