    Sand impaction in older beardy

    Hi, We rescued an older bearded dragon and the folks that had him before had him on some sort of sand. He had very badly clogged femoral pores, which we had taken care of, but now he's not pooping and after an xray, we were told he's impacted with what looks like sand. He's had two rounds of...

    Beardy not eating - Vet doesn't know why

    Hey, Wanted to post an update on this topic for the folks that commented and also in case someone ends up here looking for answers about their beardy not eating. We took her to Guelph veterinary college for an ultrasound and blood transfusion in the event she needed surgery. Ultrasound...

    Toronto/GTA: In need of a blood donor

    Hi, I'm located in Toronto and our beardy needs to get blood so that she'll be able to have a surgery she needs because her red blood cell count is low. I realize this is a longshot and asking a lot, but if anyone is near the GTA, she has an appointment on Friday (July 24, 2020) and we're...

    Beardy not eating - Vet doesn't know why

    Hi, Thanks for all the responses, update below too. The other bloodwork is the first pic two posts up of mine. I think you're right though, the vet saw what looks like mummfied eggs in her latest x-ray and he red blood cell count is at 7 (up from 6 last week which isn't great but it's...

    Beardy not eating - Vet doesn't know why

    Hey all, I wanted to update everyone, our first vet called us today and said she doesn't know what's going on, her bloodwork looked off but she said "It may be cancer or something else" which wasn't too helpful. I don't have the new bloodwork yet, but I do have some from a couple months ago...

    Beardy not eating - Vet doesn't know why

    Hi all, Thanks for the responses, answers below: Reptivite reptile vitamin powder every other day when she was eating, we have Flukers liquid vitamin but we've been using that infrequently because she wouldn't eat it. 2 weeks maybe, before that we had one since late February but we were...

    Beardy not eating - Vet doesn't know why

    The bulbs exposed and it's about 8 inches from where she basks. We'll see if that makes some changes, maybe she'll be hungry tomorrow. We got her checked for parasites in March and they were negative and we should have bloodwork tomorrow, once we do I'll post it. Thank you so much.

    Beardy not eating - Vet doesn't know why

    I went ahead and turned the coil light off, for the tube we're using a T8. Also, her tank is next to an east facing window, if the additional light from that would make a difference.

    Beardy not eating - Vet doesn't know why

    Hi Karrie, Thanks so much for taking the time to help. We have a tube light and a coil light which is what we'd had for her the whole time. After she stopped eating we thought maybe the screen was blocking too much UVB so I removed the screen from the half of the tank with her basking spot...

    Beardy not eating - Vet doesn't know why

    Hi, We're worried about our bearded dragon, she hasn't been eating the same way she used to for the last month or two. We've taken her to a local vet twice and we're going to take her to an exotic vet next Tuesday or potentially sooner if we're able to get an appointment. Tank setup: Basking...
