Thank you for your concern and suggestions. She has done it for 9 years. Her exotic vet she has gone to since she was a baby said it is okay, she gets regular check-ups and he states she is very healthy and that all Beardies are not the same and some beardies do brumate longer than others he has...

Thanks, She will rarely drink water. She is over 9 years old and has refused water almost all the time we have had her since a baby but since she usually wont drink it I put the vegetables I give her in water so when she eats them she is getting water also and have her lick some baby food but...

Just want to check. Gonzo has not pooped for a month or so after eating alot of dubias and veg. She has been just laying around and black colored. Today I tried a bath again. She finally started to poop but struggled. I actually heard noises with her trying to get it out and bulging. It...

Good morning, I haven't posted in a while and have a questions about amount of food. Gonzo is about 2 years now. I was wondering if appetite goes down as they get older and do not eat as much. It is just a general question I am curious about. Gonzo also has always been one to not eat her...

@sprackles. It did end up gonzo had really bad coccidia. The vet was able to see it under the microscope even before putting it in testing soltuion. She was put on medicine and it got better. I just love our exotic vet.

As far as stressors go my son has been on vacation since last Monday and won't be back till Friday night I do most of the caring for Gonzo but she is in his room and because she's been laying around a little bit I thought maybe she realized he was gone but I wasn't sure. My my first thought was...

Hello everybody I haven't posted for a while Gonzo has been doing great she's been eating a lot running around active she's wonderful. She hasn't gone to the bathroom for a couple days and when I went in and noticed she when the stool looked something like it's never seen before. She has been...

Thanks I will try those. What size would you suggest for her size? Large? Sometimes I think she is blind or has trouble seeing because she doesn't even look down at the food I try to feed her even if its running right in front of her. But I know because of her other actions inside and outside...

I still cant get Gonzo to eat anything. I keep fruit and vegetables in a dish and Phoenix worms in a dish in her tank. I also try crickets and dubia roaches. I take her tree and log out of her tank to make sure she sees them but she doesn't even look at them or attempt to go after them. I don't...

Gonzo is the same way. I love that she is active but its like watching a toddler. She used to just pancake out on her blanked by the window on the back of the couch now she runs around jumping an climbing things. If we have her out you cant take your eyes off her. She is about 11 months but I...

Thanks CooperDragon, I am concerned this time because she went months with not eating before and never lost any weight. If she's not eating she's not getting calcium or water. I give her baths and drop water on her nose but she barely licks it. She is a stubborn girl. She has licked a little...

Hello all. First off, Lighting, heat and cage discussed and all okay. I haven't posted in a while. Gonzo is doing pretty good. Very active, running around, jumping, she's a funny girl and very smart. She hasn't been eating very well at all. Has not touched any fruit or vegetables for months...

@tkelly I know right?! They have so many different actions and behavior that if they do something new you don't know if it's normal or bad. Gonzo was really sick back in July diarrhea for weeks and she shriveled up etc. And there are only 2 exotic vets in my area. I had took her to one but now...

@tkelly this not pooping has happened before but it was longer and took her vet for xray and she was fine. Vet said if she isn't eating she really won't poop. I did call the vet. He said if she starts eating and still doesn't poop then there may be and issue and to bring her in. I love the...
