It took me awhile to make this post, and I wasn't very active in the forums other than for medical questions. This is my second account since I forgot the information for my other, which has more posts. I got Tony when he was between the ages of 8-10 already, and had him for nearly four...

He sadly passed away last night. Thank you everyone for being so helpful and supportive. I just wish I took more photos and didn't keep putting off entering him in the calender.

Yes, it's hill's perscription diet A/D.

We didn't have a top on his tank like we should of and due to us living next to a horse farm a house fly layed eggs in his nose. We bought screening and velcroed it to the top of his cage. All of his lights are under the screen as not to burn it or block out UVB.

UPDATE We just got back from the vet. She was very experienced and thorough. There was actually a few other dragons there. She believes he has heart disease due to an extremely abnormal heartbeat. We elected not to continue with testing due to his old age. I was given a can of wet food and...

He has a follow up Friday with a different vet, he isn't eating much at all and I will continue to mist him as much as possible. He isn't acceptjng the baby food on his tongue very well either.

To my knowledge he used half of the recommended dose to treat mites in bearded dragons, so maybe that's why he still seems pretty down, just doesn't feel too good from it.

And if anyone is curious the vet bill was: $101.50 USD for emergency exam $35.81 USD for ivermectin 1% injection TOTAL: $137.31 USD I was prepared to pay much more though, because I thought it would need more than a shot.

He has gone to the vet and was dianoised with Myiasis (maggot infestation). They gave him .1 mg of ivermectin commonly used for mites, since it was a similar situation, but the vet could not find anything online about what to do with a bearded dragon in such a situation. He was very good to...

None of them in my area are able to take reptiles. I am going to call the vet in the morning and try to get my appointment moved up. wish me luck

I'm calling all of them that I can, I am on hold with the last one, the rest don't take reptiles. I went to the store to get tweasers, and by the time I was home they were too far in to take out.

The best I can do is tomorrow at 2:30 eastern time.

Oh and I wanted to mention before anyone says anything about his underbite. Hes been seen by a vet before and hes been good ever since I got him four years ago. The old owners did not give him a proper diet, habitat, or lighting.
