Hello group! I just received the detrimental diagnosis that my beardie is positive for atadenovirus. She is seemingly healthy currently but I know this is a fatal incurable illness. I had her tested since she was losing a lot of weight and not eating or anything. She was also on treatment for...

That is so incredibly reassuring to hear. She was really struggling to walk for a few days and I'm hoping that it was just from not eating much and the medication. She has perked up the past day or so but the way she walked still concerned me. I also took these photos of her feet and legs and...

Here let me try again. I truly appreciate all of your advice. Thanks

Sorry I posted them but not in a direct reply. Hope you can see them still

They're short videos but here's both links Thank you

My tank is only 15.5" tall so I hardly have any room. I attached some photos of her legs/feet and would love to send video of her walking if that's possible. I'm new to the group so I don't know if or how to send videos.

Thank you so much. I actually do both ammonia and steam clean for her basking rock and hide, then wipeout rinse and dry. We steam clean her tank after every poop. I boil her water and food dishes and anything else small and let it set in the water until it cools. She ate all of her insects and...

So I actually have velcro strips that held the uvb in the inside when I first got her. I was told that the uvb was still too close to her while she was on the log and that it couldn't stay inside the tank unless I just got a piece of slate and put it on the floor. The tank from the floor to top...

Do you have any advice on how I can hang my uvb? This is my current setup and I just don't know how to make it work. I'm so scared for her and am so mad that I was told it would be ok on top of the screen as long as it was within 6-8" of her basking spot since it can filter out some uvb

She stopped eating prior to the visit but I was suppose to have the results back after 4-5 days and it ended up taking them 2 weeks to notify me of her high viral load & then they didn't even have the meds so I had to find a place online, wait for the vet to approve the prescription request, and...

I do agree that she won't eat without proper uvb, I just don't understand why she was eating perfectly fine and almost doubled in weight with my lighting set up that same way for over a month and then all of a sudden just stopped out of nowhere. I just assumed that if her lighting was off she...

Thank you for all your information. She did not have an enema, she actually pooped and then the tech got rid of it and I think they fished it out if the trash which is also concerning because who is to say that she even had parasites and it wasn't contaminated from the trash. The photos I posted...

This is her old setup but was told the uvb was still way too close to her and could cause more problems. I bought the large basking rock that sits 6" from the screen and moved the uvb to the outside and she never stopped eating. I think the parasitic load was too high which caused the lack of...

Thank you I actually reached out to Tracie directly on Saturday and haven't heard back so I decided to post a thread. I've had the lighting like this for the past 6-7 weeks and she was still thriving. Eating great and running around the tank and almost doubled in weight from the time i got her...

I have a reptisun 10.0 t5ho 22" tube. It is sitting on top of the screen which I know can filter out some of the uvb, but her basking rock is only 6" from the screen. The vet said with it being that close she should still get proper amounts of uvb. She stopped eating almost 10 days prior to the...
