Edit: I should mention that the main person who worked on Percys case before I could see the expert did know quite a bit, but the one who took the Ultrasound really didn't seem to know what he was doing because he said reptiles have vestigial livers...🤦‍♀️ I never heard back from the vet about...

Here's a short update on Percy: I thought he was doing quite a bit better these past two weeks. The black bearding had lessened or even disappeared for a while. He also wasn't gasping as frequently. I had a reptile expert vet from another city come to take a look at him. He noticed that the...

I hope your little beardie will be okay. KarrieRee is correct about the coil lights they are no good. Keep us updated.

I hope your beardie is okay. I would be horrified if someone stepped on my beardie. 😢

Oops I should add the diagnosis came from an ultrasound. His symptoms are all respiratory. Although I do believe his mouth is a bit more yellow than usual but it's hard to tell because I never paid much attention before...and at times he is somewhat lethargic but not to an alarming degree. His...

Hello, https://www.beardeddragon.org/threads/absolute-mystery-illness-vets-are-baffled.264409/ There is the thread with all the information. Be warned it's pretty long. I've been able to get him silkworms and Milk thistle extract. Aside from the silkworms and Black soldier fly larvae in...

Hello, Thank you for the advice everyone! I cut the screen off so that the Reptisun is now unobstructed. I did this on Thursday since that was the soonest I saw the reply. What white basking bulb do you recommend? I wasn't aware that the LuckyHerp isn't any good. The good news is Percy only...

Hello, I want to know experiences of people who have beardies with Liver disease/ hepatic lipidosis. My four year old male bearded dragon Percy was diagnosed with it today and the vet said I should euthanize him even though I feel like he could still have a quality life...but how long is what...

Here's some pictures of him and the basking and UV lights. My cage is 48" long, I know this is too small but the problem is Percy has been so lazy throughout his life (aside from as a hatchling and he's gained somewhat more energy lately...he was super hyperactive after the Baytril though)...

It's unfortunately not allowing me to edit my previous post but the mystery has been solved. The diagnosis is liver disease. 😢 How it relates to gasping: The fluid from his liver disease is in his abdominal cavity and putting pressure on his lungs. The vet who did the ultrasound didn't think...

Sorry that I can't help but how is your beardie doing? That sounds extremely worrisome. I know an ER could be very expensive but if she's taking a turn for the worse I'd get her in...I'm.not sure that soaking in the water dish is a concern unless she stays there all day. Then it would be...

Sorry it was so long but I already need to add more details that I forgot: *His interest in food all but vanished, although he will still eat super worms and Dubia enthusiastically. I only fed him three supers and one Dubia in addition to the critical care. I managed to get some collard greens...

Hello, First of all you can find my husbandry information here: https://www.beardeddragon.org/members/shehzainwyvern.116122/ If I'm missing any info just ask and I'll provide it! My bearded dragon Percy is a little over 4 years old. He has always been very inactive throughout his life- even...
