You need to get him to the vet so they can give you a calcium substrate. It does sound like MBD and if you live in a warm climate you need to get him out in the real sun for about 20 minutes a day. The real sun can help with this as well but he also needs the calcium substrate that you can get...

I purchased mine from Petco also and he almost died. They sold me all the wrong lights and didn't sell me a heat lamp they were both uv bulbs and the guy didn't know what he was doing. He almost died after the 15 days and they would of replaced him but we were already attached and I can't tell...

Sorry but was int he beardie ER and my beardo has been ill but now seems better. Anyways saw someone post that they do this once a year and lasts 3 weeks - 3 months. I have had mine almost 2 years and I don't think he has ever done it or nothing has changed. The most that has changed was his...

Thank you and I have got his temp good now. Well I spent two days holding him squirting water into his mouth and putting worms on my leg so he would eat them since he wouldn't eat them in his tank. He is finally today perky and back to good health. No sounds of respriatory illness anymore and...

I was able to get the antibiotic in and the vet called to see how he was today. Having some trouble getting him to take the calcium subtrate. I bought a new 150 watt light and think it might be too much. The temp around it is 118 and I don't know if it is too high. I thought there basking...

I wasn't impressed and his color is now better that he is in his tank. Do they not realize that if you don't have him in UV lights they change to a horrible color. When I picked him up from the vet I have never seen his color look that bad. I use calcium dust and crickets and I think the...

Ok sorry it took so long for the update. She wanted to do x-rays and blood work but it would of been over 400 dollars which I don't have right now so she put him on a calcium subtrate because his one leg looks swollen which might of been from falling or being of low calcium. She said he looks...

Thank you for all of your help and sorry I was also helping my sister in law restore some computer stuff when I realized he was ill so I was trying to finish that up. I had a hammock for him but as he got bigger I had to take it down but I had it set up over some of his wood to allow a softer...

Awww I hate that you bring that up. I was looking at his tank and it looks like they tried to put up a hammock and I thought that maybe he fell so for you to bring that up makes me wonder even more. I would hope they didn't do that.

It is slowly climbing but right now it is up too 95.9 and I am turning it off. Maybe another towel over it? I don't know what to do.

I just took the probe part and put it between him and the heat pad to see what kind of a reading I get. Oh everytime he breaths like that it makes me sad.

I have a probe thermostate in there but not sure what a probe gun is. I have a pillow case around the heat pad and had it on med while he was on me and now have it on low I keep checking it and it seems like it isn't very warm but I am too scared to keep it at medium. He keeps off and on...

Ok he just made that horrid sound again and I went to the tank and he was arched clear up then he layed his head down and closed his eyes again.

He now has his eyes open again and his head tilted up and then starts falling asleep. It is almost like he is exhausted but can't sleep.

I have a blue heat light but can't find it. I do have some of those emergency feet hand and body warmers that you break to let heat out. Is that what you mean?

The lights are on a timer. They turn on at 8am and off at 9pm so the lights were ok but I keep the house at 78 to keep his tank warm since I don't have a night heat lamp on it and she turned the heat down to 70 so I bet his tank got down to around 65 which maybe colder since our high here was...

He looks like he his breathing harder than normal for going to sleep. His sides are moving quit a bit. I never noticed it before so I don't know if it is different.

He is about a year and a half. He pooped when I took him up in the bathroom and he ran around a bit. He stuck his tongue out at the towel and as I layed him in his tank he made the gasping noise a few times. He is laying down now and not quite asleep but eyes closed opening them with sounds...

I was on here a year ago when I first got him he was ill and have had no problems and got him to good health with your help. I just returned home from out of town leaving for a week. I have his lights on a timer and I kept the house at 78 while gone since it is so cold but the lady watching...

Ok I love the guy or girl not sure and I have had him almost a year. WOW!! I have really focused on spending time with him but I am so anxious around him and terrified of him getting hurt. I have just now started allowing him in a locked room and I follow right behind him making sure he...
