It can't drink the mixture (crickets, worms, and some cal). Its health has deteriorated dramatically over the past few hours. I feel it might have ADV, as its symptoms point to no other disease.

Thank you very much! I'll try this immediately

It's dying, unfortunately. I feel like crying, but there's nothing I can do. This might sound inhumane, but should I feed it to one of my lizards so it doesn't suffer? It's breathing has become very shallow and I can see its ribs.

Thank you so, so much.. I just force-fed it some critical care, so I'm going to proceed to do such every hour or so. I suppose the only thing I can do is try to build up its strength.

I have leftover ceftazidime shots in my freezer, and my friend is persisting I give a small dosage to the baby (it weighs 16 grams, mind you). I heavily believe it's a bad idea, but they're angry with me for not doing so. They think that since the baby is passing anyway, the injection won't do...

Yes, the basking temps are a little high for its immune system and the UV lighting is working great (I tested it). As I said before, one of the other babies it was living with was sick, so you're probably right. Thank you for everything

The eye did shed, but I don't think the baby will make it. Despite my attempts to give it critical care, it continues to lose weight and looks weak. I have experienced quite a few reptile deaths in my time, so this just breaks my heart. I know it doesn't have a ri or parasites, so I don't know...

The strip bulb is a Zilla T8 and is on top of the screen lid about seven inches from the basking spot. Today, I have fed the baby critical care and it has gained one gram from me doing so. I'm very confused, as it's very active, but it refuses to eat. I've checked for mites and it's feces do not...

I am using a strip bulb for UV and a 75-watt heat bulb. The basking temp is 103, the cool side is 80, and the humidity is 25%. I measure using a temp gun and digital thermometer and hygrometer

I just moved it into a 40-gallon. It is shedding and pooping a small amount

I rubbed the eye with a Q-tip gently. I'm in the middle of building a dubia colony, so I will try to feed it some of those. Ty, btw I should have mentioned this before, but it was living with two other beardies, and one of them was sick. I felt bad, but I knew it wasn't going to make it...

I just bought a baby beardie from PetSmart (ik, ik I shouldn't do that, but it was living in awful conditions), and it had eye issues from day one. It always had its eyes shut and scratched them on surfaces. For around a week, it has refused to eat. I've tried crickets, small mealworms, and a...
