Thank you for your very kind words Savora, the community on here is just amazing, I've never come across such a group of kind and knowledgeable people. Now more time has passed, it feels less painful. We do pick up Brick Tops ashes tomorrow and I just want him home with us, he can hang out with...

I completely agree with you. When we first got Brick Top (from a reptile shop whom get their reptiles from Hamm or breeding them themselves) the next day we took him in to the vet for a check over. This didn't include fecal or skin scraping (something I didn't even know about until I just read...

Hi, Its been a few weeks gone by now. We have been waiting for post mortem results and we have just found them out now for poor Brick Top. His blood test results taken the day before his death showed that he had significant kidney failure. The vet believes this is the main cause of death...

We got a heart breaking call from the vet this morning. Brick Top is no longer with us. This should never have happened, he was so lovely and the poor thing suffered for no good reason. I cannot explain how I feel. I have never felt guilt like this in my life. Thank you everyone for your help...

They did say they would call every day, but normally I wouldn't want to question too much, I guess I just trust a lot but now I will want full explanations every day like you said. I just hope the new environment hasn't stressed him out too much. Poor thing he didn't ask for any of this.

I didn't take any photos of him today, but he looked worse

These are older photos of him from about a month ago This is 3 days ago This is him drinking in the bath yesterday morning

He was always a super healthy boy (especially compared to our previous beardie Trevor, who had problems since the day we had him, bless him, we miss him tremendously ) He was around 400g, about 17in, used to eat greens from my hand and went mad for his roaches. He did start to slow down on the...

omg, me too. I didn't want him to stay overnight (they wanted us to take him in last week, but decided to give us the Carnivore Care instead) but this time we (again) thought it was best but I was worried about the stressful environment. I want to run over there now and take him away. I so so so...

I feel skeptical too. I've taken out all the porous decor (wood etc) about 2 weeks ago and kept in only the stuff that is sanitisable. I've been giving all of it a good steam clean (including his bath after every bath time) and I will do so again before he comes back. I just feel so worried, he...

I will ring the vet first thing tomorrow, asking about Toltrazuril. We are in the UK, but I take it this is still available here too? He will be at the vets until Thursday now and I'm starting to feel like if anything happens, well, I don't know. I just thought (once again) I was doing what was...

I don't think so, I've never heard of culture sensitivity. The PALS results said the Coccidia was Moderate. We have been instructed to give him Sulfatrim 0.1ml every other day, which we have for 2 weeks. I will absolutely speak to them tomorrow if they can use the other treatment. If the other...

Thank you for your response. I checked the list and we have been taking our beardie to one of the vets listed. We took him in earlier and they saw that he was lethargic and his fat pads were low but weighed him and he is 5g heavier then last week. They suggested he be hospitalised and they do a...

Hi, We have a beardie Brick Top who has just reached one year old. We have had him for 6 months now and he was very active, very healthy, loved his greens and roaches but in the past month he has really turned. We have had landscapers working on the garden and making a lot of noise (he looks...
