She is my only baby. I love her to pieces. She has not been exposed to any other dragons since I've had her, so my guess is,that she was probably born with it or contracted it while very young. My baby is a year old now. I had her tested because I didn't know anything about her background being from a pet store, and after reading about how contagious Atadeno is, I wanted to know to try to be somewhat prepared for what could happen. Also, if she was positive, I wanted to keep her away from other healthy beardies. She is in a 40 gallon breeder. I keep her warm side around 90 degrees and her basking spot around 105. Her cool side is at 80. I am meticulous about her terrarium temps (especially now that it's cooler out and we do tend to keep the house cool). I check the temps a few times a day with my temperature gun and also keep analog thermometers inside both sides if the terrarium. At night, I run a 100 watt heat emitter since I know the house at night is cooler than 65, usually more like 60. With the emitter her enclosure stays around 70-72. I am definitely wanting to try to begin liver treatment. Where would I get milk thistle or colloidal silver? Would they have these at a health store like the Vitamin Shop or should I ask my Vet? To tell you the truth, I don't even know if I trust my vet anymore. I brought her in about 3 weeks ago for a checkup knowing that we are getting into brumation season and asked about testing her for this and the vet seemed very apathetic about testing. She said she would need to do a blood test and liver biopsy to test and would not recommend unless she begins to show signs of the disease. Why would I want to wait until she shows signs when I can try to supplement her now to prevent future problems? And, why didn't she know that it could be tested by a stool sample (she already had some since she was testing for parasites, which thankfully she is clear of). I wish I knew about Atadeno sooner, I would have had her tested a while ago.
