He's been doing relatively good! His coloration has improved significantly. He looks like a happy bright yellow. He still does random mouth wide open/side heaving fits. But nothing happens. He doesn't throw up or hiss or wheeze. He's just gaping and his sides are going in and out. Other...

He won't eat anything you guys :( What do I do? Do I force feed him?? How long is it okay for him to not eat after he threw up? He had some licks of the baby food. Anyou time I could catch him with his mouth open I'd set a little chunk at the front of his nose. Then he would lick and get...

I got home and he is not black at all! He's asleep on the lizard bed and he propped his own chin up on one of the pillows. It's in the top 10 cutest things I've ever seen <3 I set an alarm to get up in 3 hours and try the baby food. I hope he eats some and it agrees with him!!! Cross your...

I know!!! I don't think any living thing should be given away for money. So many animals from chain stores suffer. I wish that wasn't a thing anymore.

Hi Tracie, Thank you for your heart felt response. Your words don't upset me, because I feel the same way. Once he's awake and warmed up I'll try to feed him. Do I let him eat as much as he wants? Or stop at some point so I don't overload him again? Thanks everyone for your help and...

I just found it strange... he only had 8 worms in 2.5 days and puked. When I had left for work he hadn't had any more pukes piles in the lizard house, but he was still gaping and occasionally going dark on the end of his tail and his whole beard. His sides fluff in and out. It looks like a...

Gormagon, I couldn't agree more. And I have tried. I just want him to get better. I had to go to work and I just hope he's doing okay :(

Hi! Thanks for the replies. Today he is doing much better. No black beard or black tail. No more pukes. He is laying in one spot and isn't restless like yesterday. I just gave him a 10 minute soak in warm water and rubbed his tummy a little. He didn't drink any of the water and he didn't...

Hi everybody, A beardie I'm caring for started throwing up. He is a rescue and has preexisting health issues. He's never thrown up before. He's under a reptisun desert 10.0 uv light and a basking light/heat lamp. Shelf liner for substrate. He refuses greens but will eat worms. The last...

The detergent I use is just plain tide... so not dye or perfume free. But I feel like if it was a reaction to that, his eyes should be done being swollen by now. I have flushed them with water, and he was given a course of antibiotics as well. I am taking him back in Monday... probably will...

I got him the first open appointment on Monday... I hope he is okay ... The last time I took him there they just gave him eye drops and said give it time. But the eye drop treatment ended weeks ago and his eye are not back to normal :( We will see what the vet has to say on Monday I suppose..

Wow- good find joea! Thank you! He is shedding now, and is very grumpy about it.. but I suppose it must itch.. Maybe that's what's going on with him.. but that article said usually its for hours... not days. Especially not weeks :( I guess I better start searching for a herp specialist... and...

Okay- took me forever to refind my photobucket account lol but here goes! This is pictures of normal sandy And now here he is lately :( so sad... He looks like one of those goldfish with the googly eyes :( The vet he saw was not a reptile specialist, but he was an "exotic" vet...

Both lizards have the reptisun 10.0 tube fluorescent bulbs for UV, and both are kept on non-adhesive self liner. ..makes me sad because I'm doing what I am supposed to, and these poor lizards have issues :( I feel like a bad lizard mom :( oh- and the one vet out here said his eyes were "just...

Their basking temps are at 100-105 degrees F. They have gone through every feeder in the book and snub them all now. They've had crickets, meal worms, silk worms, pheonix worms, butter worms, 2 different kinds of coaches- and I ended up throwing all the bugs away. They go crazy for something...
