This is a long read but worth if you want to clear your dragon of an entamoeba Hi, I rescued a bearded dragon (Buddy) back in June and he was diagnosed with an entamoeba invaden. His poop was loose and had grey like muscus in it with slight blood, his activity was very lethargic and he was...

Hey, I got this cologne and its kinda strong. I wasnt thinking but i sprayed it on me three different times while being a foot away from my dragons enclosure. Will the smell harm him or give him a respiratory infection? Can i still wear cologne? if not then ill stop because his health is more...

Hi, Thank you for responding, He was on the higher dose for two weeks, i dont know how high his parasite levels were at the time. We recently got his stool checked again almost two weeks ago and they said he had a "rare" amount. He began the lethargic symptoms after being off the high dose for...

Hi, Update on Buddy, We got his echo for his heart done on the 11th and they said his heart was in good measuring and looked healthy. We found out what type of entamoeba he has as well, Its called Polecki Entamoeba. Well, He has been battling this Entamoeba for a month now and was doing good on...

Hi, We got XRays done because we thought he had an RI from the coughing motion he was doing, but found out he has an enlarged heart instead. The vet doesn't know why he has an enlarged heart, She said it could possibly be from the way the previous people housed him. The Ultrasound for his heart...

Hi, Hes been on it for little over two weeks i think. We had an appointment today and the doctor lowered his dose to 0.2ML and wants him to take it everyday for ten days instead of every other day like before. Shes hoping that will flush the last bit of parasites out. His appetite is good with...

Hi, The bearded dragon i rescued a month and something ago is getting treated for an entamoeba. Hes on 0.25ML of Metronidazole and weighted at 244grams with his first dose but he has grown since then in width and length. We just sent in his poop in today for another test since hes done his six...

Hi, Were sending his stool in for testing tomorrow to see if theres been any improvement (Ill let you know the results when i get them). Were giving him a pea sized amount of Bene Bac probiotic gel every 24 hours that were hoping is helping him. He looked more stressed today, hes shedding and...

Thank you, he has one more week left of treatment but his stool is still runny and smelly so we think he might be on a low dose of meds. Hes been on the cooler side recently and hes been doing this before he did the sneeze thing (Hes super active in the morning though). He does still bask but...

Hi, I give him three hours before i shut off lights but i made a mistake and played with him an hour after he ate and thats when he sneezed. Hes been good so far though but he has been stressed (I think its cause hes about to shed). His breathing looks to be okay, hes going to a vet appointment...

Hi, Thank you for the reply, I woke him up an hour ago, he yawned twice and now hes acting normal so far besides possible weirdish breathing but were gonna watch him. I think he ate a little too much yesterday and thats what caused it

Hi, I just got done feeding my bearded dragon greens almost two hours ago and when i took him out to hold him, he sneezed and a little water came out his mouth. I held him still in my hand trying not to move so he doesn't aspirate anymore of it and he coughed three more times. I put him under...

Hi, Doctor said the outside of it looked bad but it showed healthy on the bloodwork which is confusing. I can see if i can get the blood results. Maybe i have badluck? She unfortunately couldn't wake up from the anesthesia and passed away. But the doctor had to do exploratory surgery due to...

Hi, my bearded dragon that i rescued in August of 2023 just had exploratory surgery yesterday. They did bloodwork before surgery and it came back all healthy even the liver showed to be fully functioning and healthy. The doctor found a cyst on her liver during the surgery and also said the liver...

Hi, i just got Puffs culture results back three days ago and it turns out she has a yeast infection inside her lungs along with the respiratory infection. The vet thinks the yeast infection couldve started from all the meds shes been taking. Shes on Ceftazidime (0.6 ML), Gentamicin & Saline mix...

Hi, last post was about the inside color of Puffs throat. Turns out the black color is normal and we also ran a fungal culture on her skin because her head looked yellowish. We got results yesterday and shes fungal FREE! Were so happy. Were still trying to beat this respiratory infection though...

Hi, im sorry for the late reply, its been stressful lately. Shes in a 20Gal right now, but i use an Arcadia T5 12% tub Kit for UVB lighting. The basking temp gets 90-103F and we use Thrive digital thermometer/hydrometer probes. Were moving her to an 85Gal hopefully tomorrow due to her being...

Hi, im sorry for the late reply, its been so stressful lately. Were now nebulizing her with gentamicin and saline mixed for thirty minutes to an hour along with the marbofloxacin. It turns out she has a severe case of YFD, we think at least (Some of her scales are dark grey and yellow). Thank...

Hi, this is an update on the bearded dragon i rescued a month ago. We decided to name her jiggly puff because her beard is big lol. She now weighs 542-550 grams and were still doing critical care but every other day. I still have to kind of force the food carefully into her mouth but she takes...

I would love that! Thank you
