That so cool that you did this!! Hopefully, the temperature gets back to normal. We have been having the same problem in New Mexico; one day its below freezing, then the next 2 days its 70F, then the next day its below freezing again! i'm always worried that the reptiles around here will come...

I got the appointment for Lizanardo set up for Saturday!! But, I need to bring a fecal sample. This isn’t surprising to me, but I have no idea how to transport a fecal. Any help would be appreciated! I am driving 2 hours to the appointment, if this helps any

Thank you for these! :D :D My dad is sending me extra money to use for her vet bill. I am having to get Fury and Tesla (my sideneck turtle) tested also, but for sure i only know that Lizanardo has them. She is in quarantine right now and so are the others. I was going to use the one in...

i have no clue the exact parasite, but i do know it is intestinal. Possibly upper gastric. She is 20g, but was 10g when i first got her. The parasites are mostly why she isn't gaining any more weight

Hey, unfortunately Lizanardo has intestinal parasites. I need to take her to the vet but I seem to be unable to locate one near me (Tucumcari, NM) . She is an eastern collared lizard of unknown age. I would really appreciate help in finding a vet!

I’m in a search for vets that have experience working with small animals near Tucumcari, New Mexico. So far my search has been fruitless. I need to get anti-parasitic medicine for Lizanardo, my collared lizard and I seem to be unable to locate a vet to take her to. Any help will be greatly...

Thank you! I'll definitely do this when I get home

My eastern collared lizard has some stuck shed on his (her?) snout. I thought it would flake off on its on but no such luck. Any advice on how to remove it? (He's underweight but rapidly gaining weight and appetite; he was a rescue from a couple of months back).

The ant problem got so bad that I had to remove fury from my room for a little while, until we could get them cleared. I ended up having to take him to school with me for the last day!! We later found out that they were after some old Halloween candy AND Fury's live crickets. They've gone away...

Turns out we have a wood ant problem with the coming of spring! i found this out because Fury ate one on the floor.... Talk about interrigating lizards to figure out what they just ate :roll: :shock: ( wood ants are a common name, they are big black ants that are essentially harmless, so...

Yesterday before I left for school, I decided to let Fury try some prickly pear with his food. I was doubtful about it because he HATES anything red with a fiery passion! But when I got home and checked on him, he ate them and only threw 3 peices across the enclosure!!! I call this a victory...
