Hello,

These particular anti-inflammatory medications usually aren't used for gout cases. Sometimes
they will prescribe Metacam for septic arthritis caused from uric acid crystals or simply from
metabolic bone disease symptoms.
A really good anti-inflammatory medication often used in combination with Allopurinol for gout
is Colchicine. The problem with these classes of medications is that they can't be given for long
periods of time & can also cause adverse symptoms such as diarrhea & dehydration.

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
