[QUOTE="SarahNancy13, post: 2000981, member: 116285"] Hi guys, Ember's been doing okay I think. Gave him his 4th dose of antibiotics (I had to kinda force feed him by putting it in the side of his mouth and waiting until he opened because I don't think it tastes good to him :(). He's on the medication for 6 more days 0.2mL each dose and the vet marked it on the syringe. He's eating very well, still eating all his veggies and around 25-30 bugs 3x a day (crickets, dubias, BSFL). He even chases after them in his feeding tank so I'm glad his energy still seems to be up. Still giving calcium w/o D3 2x a week, calcium with D3 2x a week and the Herptavite multivitamin 2x a week (all on different days). He's going to the bathroom normally (1-2x a day) and I'm cleaning it right away with a steam cleaner and disinfectant then a new paper towel. It might just be wishful thinking but I think today his dropping was less stinky then usual and looked pretty solid so hopefully the parasites are going away! Poor guy is also starting to shed his head so I'm making sure to spray him and offer water frequently because I know the antibiotics is dehydrating. He still only really drinks water from little droplets off my fingers but he will sit there and lap it up maybe 1x a day for 3-5 minutes at a time. The Reptisun is a T5 tube, I attached a picture of how far it is inside his viv. The basking light is right above where he is on the rock. Please let me know of anything else I can do to help him get better! He got a little startled today because I opened one of the doors to his enclosure pretty fast and his little feet were in the track, he jumped back but is walking normally so I don't think I caught his toes, maybe just startled him a little. His feet look okay (also attached a picture). Thank you so much! I'm such an anxiety person in general so I get worried at every little thing (my mom calls it new mom syndrome :LOL:) as he's my first beardie.
