    Inflammed joint - like a blood blister

    Gir has a lump which keeps growing on his back right leg at the joint. I popped it with a needle and blood came out and filled back up. Any thoughts. Going to the vet would be an option (I am unemployed at this time and can't afford to take him). His eating, pooping and activities are normal...

    Gizmo

    It has been one year since we put Gizmo to sleep. Seems the hole in our hearts is still there everytime I look at her cremain box. She is sadly missed. Gir is adjusting to Nevada and loves being outside. We have decided to get another beardie sometime in the near future but nothing will...

    Successfully Moved to Reno, NV

    Hi, all, we successfully moved from Plainfield IN to Sparks NV with Gir!! He loves it out here where he can run around the back yard by himself! When we had Gizmo put down, it was so sad, but I was in our local PetSmart with Gir and was approached by the store manager who asked if I would be...

    Gizmo

    we lost Gizmo today. Her tumor wasn't getting smaller, she was wasting away. My son, who belonged to Gizmo, went with me to the vet and he made the decision (he's 13). The vet is having her cremated for us and placed in a oak box with her name on it. They will also do "claw" impressions for...

    HELP - Gizmo has a tumor

    Her tumor has shrunk about 2MM which has releaved pressure on her back leg... She has been using the back right leg a little and seems to be perky. Dr. Brian (our vet) said to check back in a week to see how we are progressing and re-evaluate at that time. So, it seems to be helping. We will...

    HELP - Gizmo has a tumor

    Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers for Gizmo. We will see by Friday if (hope) the therapy works. We decided that if the therapy shows signs of working, we will ask the vet if we can continue for a week or two to see if we can shrink it even more. Hope for the best. My son is devastated...

    HELP - Gizmo has a tumor

    The vet gave us 3 hormones to give her. The mass is too large to risk surgery at this time (also the cost factor). We are giving her until Friday because of the "hormone cocktail" they hope it shrinks. If it starts, i will probably continue for a week. Positive thoughts, since Gizmo is my 13...

    HELP - Gizmo has a tumor

    I just got back from the vet and its not good. Gizmo has a tumor, they think on her ovary which has been growing since she mature but escellate with this last batch of eggs she laid. We are trying hormone therapy to shrink the tumor so that they can go in and remove it. If the vet goes in on...

    Egg Laying

    Not sure if this is normal, but since New Years, Gizmo has laid a total of 60+ eggs. She would lay one here and there then have a small clutch, the scratch at her cage walls, eat, poop a little, then scratch like she didn't want to be in there, then lay a egg or three, be fine then have a...

    Egg Laying

    I have been giving her calcium everyday since she laid the first clutch. Will continue for another week, as well as dusting the crickets! UVB lamps are replaced and good so everything should be good for her. She is really perky this morning and ate like a little pig!

    Egg Laying

    Giz seems to lay them all over, and usually it happens in the early morning when their lights come on. Went to a party New Year's eve and she layed two, woke up New Year's day and there were 10, then one in the evening, then one this morning! Go figure. She doesn't seem to scratch but she...

    Egg Laying

    Gizmo who is 2 years old and not in the same cage as Gir who is the same age, all of a sudden she started laying eggs. Over the past 3 days, she has layed approximately 13 eggs. I assumed that they were not fertilized since she has not mated with Gir (we are not in a position to start...
