Ok, so my bearded dragon is approximately 3 months old and has been in my care for the past 3 weeks. As of about 4 days ago his appetite has gone down, he wasn't much of a big eater to begin with but he had become uninterested in the crickets I was giving him. He'd watch them walk around and keep his eyes on them but he didn't want to chase after them to eat them. He also was not pooping normally for 2 days, I figured maybe it was his greens as they were starting to go bad so I replaced them. But on Thursday I got home from class and saw blood in his stool. I immediately took him to the vet but did not have a fresh stool sample to have them examine. The vet gave me a liquid coating to help ease his intensities and colon if they were aggravated.
I force fed him 2 small wax worms and 6 dubia last night and he was able to keep them down. This morning he had a small poo with no blood in it but it was way to small to sample for a fecal test. Now after his bath I prepared him a little salad with a few wax worms and he hasn't touched it. A few minutes later her threw up and I saw some remnants of the Dubias. I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions until I can get a solid stool sample to take to the vet.
I bathe him on a daily basis for about 10-15 to keep his hydration up. And after he threw up he did take in some water. He also currently weighs 18 ounces.
His terrarium has a basking spot of up to 118 degrees at the highest perch point and the cool side of the tank is at 84 degrees with humidity at 21%. I have both a reptisun 10.0 UVB tubular bulb and a 150 watt basking bulb.
