    URI resistant to medications

    A URI was confirmed, yes. Went to my vet again and took some rads and sent off a culture. She did say that the lungs sounded a lot better, but her symptoms have not improved and the xrays showed a film in her lungs (which is why we wanted a culture). She is off of the baytril now, still hasn’t...

    URI resistant to medications

    That makes sense about the medications. I will find the bloodwork and post it, the dr said it was all within normal values. I will stop using the humidifier asap, I’m sorry I was told that low humidity could cause major health issues. I didn’t start using the humidifier until she got her URI...

    URI resistant to medications

    I have struggled from day 1 with recurring URIs in my beardie. She had one when bringing her home from the store, and she's had 3 more in the 16or so months that I have had her. This particular one seems resistant to every medication that my vet has given, first SMZ TMP suspension and now...

    Relocation Stress?

    Thanks, that makes me feel a bit better! I always worry it’s not what she needs. I’ve been working on my husbandry a longgg time. She’s my baby and I want what’s absolutely best ($1000 later… lol). The first two images are ones I just took, she’s definitely very alert. Very very stressed. I put...

    Relocation Stress?

    Hello! I've had Drax for almost a year, she just turned a year old last month and has been doing great. Have had an issue or two with URIs, but have taken care of that and got it all sorted (she is VERY sensitive to any humidity above 30%). She's been a happy, social, sweet (and...

    Respiratory Infection

    Thank you! I was told on here before to keep her night temps at 85 with her being sick, though I will lower it. She has been better with lowering her humidity, she had many more complications when it was about 40-50%. I keep it upper 20s, never less than that and never more than 35%. This is the...

    Respiratory Infection

    When I brought my baby home 8 months ago, I immediately saw signs of a respiratory infection. I took her to the vet and got it verified and medicated, and it went away. since then, it has kept coming back, despite her treatments and hundreds of dollars and many many hours going into her setup to...

    URI in baby beardie?

    Her symptoms never completely went away, but improved significantly until recently. She's struggling again. I've kept her humidity at 20% lately and her husbandry has hardly changed. Getting a larger tank and feeding is different, though everything else that i've mentioned previously in this...

    URI in baby beardie?

    They didn't specify but I am assuming that it's because she hasn't gotten over the URI, and they want to make sure there's nothing messing with her immune system I guess. She doesn't have any other symptoms of it, so I was confused at first, though I know some can be asymptomatic.

    URI in baby beardie?

    Okay, thank you! I will get right on this. I'm happy to say she's doing amazing otherwise, and her symptoms are only very slight, which is still worrying since she's had this since i've gotten her a couple of months ago now. She hasn't had drainage for a few days now, her saliva doesn't seem to...

    URI in baby beardie?

    I am still having the same issues. I contacted the vet awhile ago and told her she was still having issues breathing, and she gave me more medicine and evaluated my enclosure and husbandry and confirmed that I am giving proper care and that is not the issue, but I don't know what could be. Her...

    URI in baby beardie?

    So Drax is still having difficulty breathing and her saliva is much thicker and is even coating her mouth. She's still very active and very hungry and has regular bowel movements, which I'm happy about, but of course the breathing is very concerning. Husbandry hasn't changed and everything has...

    URI in baby beardie?

    I took her to the vet a couple of weeks ago, and they did confirm a URI and prescribed antibiotics, which I gave her and she had just finished with them. She was doing much better, and her symptoms had really died down, but now a couple days after her treatment has been finished, she is already...

    URI in baby beardie?

    Good evening, I wanted to update as I am very concerned now. She was fine all day, I could tell her breathing was very deep and I was starting to see her saliva thicken, though still no drainage. She was struggling a bit more to breathe, but seemed alright otherwise, eating all of her veggies...

    URI in baby beardie?

    Thank you! Okay, thank you thats what I originally thought too, the people at the store told me she was 5 months, though I've been caring and feeding her as if she were around 3-4. If she does get worse I have a vet I can take her to, and I'll be in contact with them. Temps are all monitored...

    URI in baby beardie?

    Here are those images. Also wanted to update on her condition. She seems to be open-mouth, deep-breathing a bit more than she was before, I don't always hear the clicking noise and there's still no drainage or thick saliva. Just obvious that she is struggling a little. She's still eating and has...
