Hello there, I have had a little baby beardie for 2 months now, I feed her on calcium worms mostly and vegetables, but yesterday I ran out of my supply so I bought some mini mealworms... She hand feeds mostly and lives a happy life, but today she has been very shaky and when I go near her she shakes a lot... I have tried feeding her but she has been uncomfortable... I just tried picking her up then all of a sudden she almost froze, and her mouth opened and she started breathing insanely fast then a little bit of poo started coming out, I put her back in, where she fell off her log then all of a sudden she came back around. She hasn’t been moving much since and I am worried!.
Yesterday I fed her about 10 mini mealworms and 2 calcium worms (only ones I had left) and today I gave her some butternut squash, I wouldn’t think this is impaction because it’s been 1 day, and surely 1 day without calcium worms wouldn’t cause calcium deficiency? Should I try feeding her more worms coated in calcium? I haven’t been dusting the calci worms because they have enough calcium in them apparently, and I didn’t dust any mini mealworms yesterday! Thanks
Edit, I also forgot to say, she only fainted when I got her out of her viv, which she never does because she loves coming out and running around and sleeping and eating... at the current moment she is sitting on the ground fairly lethargic a bit shook I would think. I am wondering if maybe eating all those yesterday made her feel sick and made her not want to come out? If she felt sick and then I took her out that could’ve made her feel a bit scared maybe?
