What's your beardie's name ? Poor boy, hopefully a vet can figure out what the problem is. Insist on having an Xray , that should show something abnormal. Get the Xray to post a copy here as well if you can. Any medical Xrays are your property.

His name is Viserion, like the dragon from game of thrones. Yes, I will insist on having an Xray and do my best to ease his pain and get him the right treatment. I'm just hoping that we can get the proper treatment as we don't have specifically reptile specialists in my country. I will post the Xray as soon as I receive it.

Hi there, here to update on my beardies situation. Since I wrote last time he had stopped eating and completely ignores all food, even his favourites. I managed to get an appointment at a clinic and just arrived from it. The vet opened his mouth and look into his mouth and throat and said that he has an infection from deep within his throat. She injected into him an antibiotic which she has to do again on monday and wednesday. On wednesday she said there should be a difference, so she will give him a checkup and decide how to continue with treatment. Very hopeful that it works, still not sure what it is from. Just incase I am now going to clean his entire terrarium to make sure it's not contaminated.

Hopefully the treatment will help. If his throat hurts that may explain why he doesn't want to eat.

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
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
Taking my beardie for a walk
