It's alright! I live in the south so we're still pretty temperate (as of right now). I'll make sure he gets plenty of sunlight until my new lights come in.
After giving him the critical care diet (he eats .75ml three times a day, he's a hungry baby), he seems to be a tad more active and his...
I wasn't offered a warranty when I bought it and I couldn't return it to the PetSmart I bought it from since I didn't have the receipt (which is fair, the PetSmart I live closest too has a bad problem with shoplifters). I'm not sure if I should go with a "herp" brand tube fixture or just get...
Well, my UVB fixture just started sparking and burned out my Reptisun bulb. It was an "All Living Things" fixture that was the right length and all that, i have no clue what happened. Already ordered a new one.
I have to place him there, he has never been able to climb all the way up on his own. The basking light is a 75 watt (I went back to the hotter one, I live in Oklahoma and my apartment is starting to get very cold, but I take temps with a temp gun frequently to make sure they don't go above...
That's what I said! No tests have been run and she wants to put him on injections. I'll stick to the critical care diet and bring in a stool sample when I get one, only when it's been tested will I buy meds
Vet wants to prescribe Ceftazidime injections without testing for infections, so I'm getting a critical care diet from her but no meds today as he hasn't given me a fresh stool sample yet.
It's a T8, I will be ordering a T5HO tube after I put some money on my card today. Force feeding is a bit difficult, he won't open his mouth and has associated the syringe with discomfort so he squirms if I touch it to his mouth. I think parasites is a pretty good bet but I'm definitely going to...
He seems to be getting *slightly* better than this morning. He's basking on the dash of my boyfriend's car right now and his head is tilted up and he seems much more alert and responsive. The general vet closest to me has an "exotics" veterinarian, but she has a pretty good track record with...
The suspended calcium is dosed at .02 ml a day and is supplemented with powder calcium and a multivitamin with his slurry. Her opinion was MBD and dehydration, and she told me to continue with the slurry feeding and see if he improves. No tests were performed as she works in a clinic that deals...
He has been to a reputable reptile vet a couple of times and she gave me 10ml of calcium glubionate. He's been up and down severity wise, honestly though he has never been in top shape since I bought him. I've been trying my best to do better than the pet store though.
My UVB setup is a 22"...
