zolton got put to sleep today. Love ya Zolton xx

on the way home i went to the store and bought creamy chicken baby food. i watered it down and put it on my finger against his mouth and he was lapping it up. i tried the syringe and it went everywhere - over his head - on the wall - so i had to put him in the bath to clean him up! i carried on...

thanks for all your kind advice and listening dawn. yes he has calcium powder i think - i will do that - sprinkle some of that into the baby food. good idea with side of mouth. i have got a fruit cocktail baby food - is that okay?? so i have to mix it with water - in the syringe - how much? i...

i have decided to try and feed zolton some baby food like the vet suggested. i have the baby food and a syringe - how do i open his mouth? sorry just re-read your post - if i can't open his mouth i will put the baby food on my finger - like you suggested. got nothing to lose have i?

he just not well Dawn. got him out again this afternoon - gave him some more water. i don't want him suffering.x

He cried on over the phone Dawn - that was hard to take. the vet gave me a syringe and said about feeding zolton with baby food. i just don't want to force his mouth open and cause him anymore stress. he lapped up water from my finger this morning. just been to look on him and he not well...

so sorry to hear that xxx

thanks Dawn that is really kind of you. he hasn't eaten or drunk since last saturday. so today - i just put water on my little finger and put it against zoltons' mouth and he started licking it - i was so pleased. so i kept doing that for a while. i tried some salad and he didn't want it so i...

just come from the vets. it isn't good news. it was a repile vet where i took him. He done the gasping then the whole body shut down at the vets. The vet said he hasn't got any lumps but it could be his heart or a tiny tumour. he doesn't know. the back of his throat is inflamed. he said that he...

i got zolton out last night and his throat feels really hard. could he have something stuck in it?

Zolton this morning: he looks a bit better - his throat to the touch seems a bit hard. maybe i am being paranoid i don't know. i am scared to get him out incase he does a 'shut down' again. Dawn my Mum told me his temp is almost 40oc.

i think that he has a flourescent blub. i will have to see how old the bulb is. yes is has a basking bulb - it is covered - in a square kind of like box - so he can't get to it.will have to check out the wattage. he has 2 bowls changed everyday - for his veggie food and water. yes calcium...

i don't know about the temps - my brother takes care of all that. i think the measuring temp is the stick on time inside the cage. he has sand that we buy from the reptile shop. he can't get close to his UV light. he won't eat crickets only locusts except the past week he hasn't been wanting to...

he has been okay all day. then i just got him out and had him on my shoulder he was okay for a few minutes then he started opening his mouth and almost that he gasping for breath. his eyes half closed. i put him back inside his cage and he seems a bit better now. what is going on? could that...

thanks dawn - it was a worry. i say he is mine - but he really is my brothers. I have been looking after him for 10 months while my brother works away. his name is zolton. :D so you think it was just a simple case of drinking too much water? i am terrified to bath him ever again!

i try and bath my beardy once a week. i did it yesterday and he didn't seem to happy about being in there. for a few seconds he closed his eyes and drunk some of the water. After about a minute i took him out. his eyes were still closed and it looked like he wasn't breathing. then he opened...
