Is she feeling any better? Just wanted to mention my 3 year old girl started showing these same exact symptoms (going off veggies, swelling in limbs, also blood in stool) a few months ago, I thought it was gout. Turns out it was eggs and she went into follicular stasis. I didn't notice any...

Hi Tracie, I haven't take her in yet due to bad weather and the fact my vet isn't very experienced with reptiles. We could still do an xray, but anything more and i'd have to find a way to get to a reptile vet. I decided to see how she does on metacam, so she is getting a small dose of that...

Thank you for the replies. After doing some research gout sounds pretty likely considering her diet lately. Over the last half year or so she began eating less and less greens, and the last few months she won't touch greens at all. She will eat a few crickets or roaches here and there but mostly...

Hi everyone, I noticed today my girl's back left ankle and foot are swollen and there is a small black spot on her ankle. It doesn't look like a puncture wound..it's a bit dry/crusty looking. She has been very restless the past week or so and I'm wondering if she strained her ankle somehow...

Thank you! Lexa is doing fine today, ate all her hornworms and seems to be back to normal. My vet didn't notice anything weird on the xray, but he said it's still possible that she was a little impacted/constipated and it may have been due to straining. So hopefully the psyllium will help and...

Well, the xrays didn't really show anything significant and the doctor is not sure what's going on, but was able to rule out parasites and prolapse. The bleeding stopped earlier today, altogether lost about 1ml of blood since yesterday. She also had a bowel movement on the way home this...

Yes I'm fairly certain she's female. I can't really get another picture since I just wiped her down. It was just a little glob of blood as far as I can tell.

This particular photo isn't from her stool, it just seems to be slow trickle from her vent. She hasn't had any dark/melanous stool, only a spot of red here and there. Never anything like this. She is still eating and drinking some but her appetite is definitely decreased, and so having less...

I wanted to post this here before I start panicking in case someone has seen this before. I have a female beardie just over 3 years old. Most of the time her stools are well formed and a fecal test a couple months ago showed no parasites. Over the last few months I have noticed some spots of...

When is the last time you replaced the uvb bulb? You could also try switching his food up, he might just be bored with the crickets? Mine is lazy like that too and stopped eating her phoenix worms until I switched to dubia roaches ^^

I finally have some time for a little update! Classes have started so I haven't had much time for photos but I managed to get a few pics on my phone. Lexa's spent all day working the shed off her head, back and belly, and she's been super hyper ever since she finished. :lol:

Thank you! Lexa's still doing well. Eating, pooping and steadily gaining weight. She hasn't been super active lately but then again she is shedding most of her body right now. She's currently warming up on her snake plush and waiting for breakfast :D And another viv pic. My brother in law...

Thanks! I'll try the Tshirt thing, although so far she's been entirely uninterested in anything I put in her viv if it's not food haha. She seems to be relaxing more and more each day and wanting to get out and explore, so I've been letting her do that a bit each day. Today she got to sit on the...

It's been a lazy day for Lexa. I think she's finally starting to settle in as she's been really active the past couple days and her stress marks aren't showing nearly as much. Today though it's icky and rainy outside. She had a bit of her salad this morning and her phoenix worms and rep-cal...

Thank you! She still seems pretty scared of me. Usually she just tries to get away or gapes at me a bit, but today she sunk down real low when she saw me. Not sure what else to do to get her to warm up to me. I've been handling her as little as possible, usually just take her out for baths...

Hi everyone! I'm sorta new here but I've been researching beardies for a couple years now so I've been lurking for quite a while, and I was finally able to get my first bd last week! I was looking for one on the cheaper side but didn't want to start with such a young beardie like what they sell...
