Also, if he really did have Adeno Virus, what is the best way to disinfect the tank if I chose to bring home a new little guy/gal? Just hit it with some F10SC? Is there a way to ensure it is completely sanitized of that virus? I would hate to be the one that infects a brand new one because...

Yeah, I think he had it too. He did to the stargazing pose a lot when he was basking, I didn't think anything of it, I actually thought he was just putting his head closer to the bulbs. My vet classified it as MBD and nothing more, but I had my suspicions. Looking at the symptoms, the light...

First, I want to say that it has been an uphill battle since I got him back in 2016. When I got him, he was undernourished and had an improper habitat. No UVB lights. Lack of heat. And the humidity was registering over 60% in the habitat. The habitat was small, even for a three month old...

Hello, So he really wasn't responding to the Tylan via fogging. So yesterday, I switched the solution to Baytril and started fogging him last night and tonight. So far, he is tolerating it well. I was nervous about doing a round of antibiotics back to back like that, but he did respond best...

Okay so, its been two weeks on the F10SC fogging treatment 30-40 minutes a day, usually at night before bed. I see MINOR improvement, but still sense some breathing issues. When I hold his chest I can definitely still feel some mucus in his lungs when he breathes. And he does go through...

Not full on blackbeard. But he is a little darker than usual. I didn't realize this could go on for weeks. He hates it so much. He doesn't fight me on it, but he definitely doesn't like it. But if its what I gotta do, then thats what I gotta do.

Day 3 of the F10SC fog treatment. Not much to report. Still very little appetite. Still doing a shot of probiotic non-dairy yogurt a day which he takes without any issues. Pooping is normal. Sleeping okay I think. Can't see or tell if things are improving for him. I guess we will...

Hey Tracie, He seemed to tolerate the treatment okay. I went closer to 40 minutes in the fogger. I watched him all day and he seemed okay. Still a little trouble with the breathing heavy, but I am sure it will clear up eventually. Is once a day the minimum and the maximum for the F10SC, or...

Okay so I manage to convince him to go in the little tub. He was surprisingly okay with it. Maybe somehow he knew that whatever I was doing was eventually going to make him feel better? So I took one of my old cricket keepers from my noob days, and covered the top holes with...

My dragon has a thing about enclosed spaces. He is very claustrophobic with a touch of PTSD from improper care and being stored in a tiny tubblewear packed like sardines with his brothers and sisters. One time I tried to put him in a smaller tank to explore the "feeding tank" possibility, he...

Well, I gave him his first treatment for 30 mins. Not sure if I did it right. I just held the nozzle thing up to his face. Every couple of minutes, he would open his eyes wide and try and scurry away and I had to bring him back to the position to continue the treatment. Not sure if I did it...

Hey Tracie, Yeah, I am hoping this knocks it out of him or at least provides him with some immediate relief. I was kind of hesitant on fogging him out with F10SC, but it has reached a new point where I feel like its necessary. I am hoping it helps. Can't wait until it gets here. My poor...

Hey, I bought the following nebulizer that should be arriving today. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071KTG4WR/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And this is the dehumidifier I bought. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GL78U8O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 He is...

Okay so I ordered a big dehumidifier on Amazon just now. My thought is maybe if I dry the air to completion, it will help dry out the mucus in his lungs. And I ordered a nebulizer. Both will be here tomorrow. Thank you Amazon for your FREE one day delivery. I am going to try nebulizing...

Hey Tracie, The second round of Baytril failed. I waited a week and tried a round of Tylan after reading that Tylan usually gets the job done when Baytril doesn't. We are on the last day of the dose, but he is not improving. I tried to lean him over to help drain the mucus and he ended up...
