Hi!
My bearded dragon Marley had a fungal infection a few years back - I remember I gave her some baths in water/betadine and applied anti fungal cream and it healed up with time. It was sometimes so slightly discolored but nothing too noticeable.
The other day I noticed it looked like it was coming back to being a more noticeable discoloration. I got some off brand betadine and off brand monistat and gave her a soak in betadine water and changed out her cage to have just paper towels . I took her out of the betadine water and she started urping a little, and threw up a bunch of clear liquid - not sure what that was all about?? Then she pooped, it was mostly brownish water with a solid urate. I cleaned her up and replaced paper towels again and applied the monistat. This happened Tuesday evening. I waited a few hours before offering some superworms, she ate about 4 (usually her appetite is much stronger) . Yesterday I didn't soak, I just dabbed with watered down betadine and applied monistat, and she ate about 6 or 7 superworms (she usually eats ten and wants more, one evening a few days ago there was a miscommunication and she ate about 25 :? ) . I'm wondering if anyone thinks I should be concerned about the vomit and diarrhea - or if maybe she might have injested some betadine water, or something to do with that ?
I am also putting up some pictures of the fungus thing - maybe someone has some ideas about what to do about this?
Thanks!!!
