Oh my god, thor has gotten gorgeous in the few months I have been gone =) Been mourning over little anore =( He brumating or just being anti-social?

She is definitely gone, her eyes are glassed and blank, mouth limp, her body is as limp as string, and her eyes are caved in. There is no breath or movement. Waited two hours after we first knew she was dead just in case. Nothing. She is gone.

She just went limp, her death beards gone. I do not think she is waking up this time.

She was doing great, and then this morning we got up and her eyes looked more sunken in. We put her in her recovery viv (shes been monitored at night on a heat pack so she doesn't get below warm temp. She stops breathing if she's cold.) to be get a little warmer. She got a little better and I...

Me too! Thanks =)

She is doing vastly better. I feel terrible because she is so young though. She's like, 5-6 weeks. Four inches when we got her.

Tail trama, retained old shed, and dehydration. We think Anore got bit in the store tank by a tank mate, or maybe crickets? (there are almost always loose crickets in the enclosures) If you want to see what the tail looked like then go see the pics in ER. I am not posting any new ones until she...

Long story, but a friend really helped us out =) Yeah, she did have to have it removed. We thought it was only gonna be the black bottom part, but apparently it was eating the inside of her tail much much quicker. I can't say how much was removed (did not see it, heard there was puss gushing...

Here is what I learned and it helped in making a decision, bearded dragons are predators, they do not show signs of being sick or hurt until they are in really bad shape. I refer to it as the, help me I'm dying black beard. Anore had tail rot, it looked similar on the tip, in the fact that...

No longer need a rescue, the problem was resolved and we still have her =)

I can't find any shelters here online, haven humane does not do touch reptiles at all. :angry5: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: So if...

Travis called around to some vets, the price quota is minimally a month or rent and utilities, so there's no was we can do that right now. Still calling around to see if there is some kind of low income thing out there, but if not we're going to surrender her to a shelter. Going to start a new...

Thank you all =) Gonna call the vet. If it end up being more than we can afford (off season for construction) then I know of a rescue the next town up that would be able to help her if I surrendered her, so either way she will get help.

So indisputably tail rot? (I know it wont stop it from spreading, but if I can't figure out what is causing it how do I know it will not come back?) Gonna be calling some vets when Travis gets home (I don't have a phone). I was looking online though and we do not have a reptile specific vet or...

She does not have retained shed, she shed her tail four days ago and it came off clean, there was no old shed. That is not the cause. Nor is dehydration. Getting bit and infected before we got her is a possibility but that was three weeks ago. -Update- When I run my hand over the bump above...

NO, there is no loose substrate. She is on tile and has a 5.0 uvb (they sent us the wrong one for horus, and it needs to be replaced soon anyways) I read that tail rot can be caused by dehydration (but we just got her, and her water sacks are huge. She gets soaks multiple times a day too...

Unfortunately my room-mate has the camera and he is passed out recovering from a night of drinking. Cannot see it anywhere, so we are fairly certain that it is in his pocket and he is sleeping on it :( I can try to describe it better? We (Travis and I) first noticed it two days ago, the tip of...

She had new tail coming in though, she didn't have hard scales there, they where really soft and floppy (and a really light color, with a new shed coming in around and above it. Then she decided not to eat the next day so I think maybe she used the fat that was coming in, to sustain herself for...

If it starts to get worse should I tie it off until she gets to the vet so it does not progress?

So anore's tail looked like it had shed on the very tip, but it was very translucent and looked like it was a fat store coming in, like her tail was growing. Then the next day she only wanted 3 bugs all day, and it started getting smaller, and slightly crooked, and hard. Now the last 1/2 of her...
