Hi everyone

Ever since drogon was diagnosed with adenovirus this year, he's been having digestive issues, which I believe is normal?

He's pooping about every 3 weeks and the urates are coming out like firm plugs. Unfortunately today he had diarrhea since I've been giving him pumpkin apple baby food. He's quite lazy too which I believe also causes issues. If you have any tips or suggestions please post below!

Right now, he eats a little critical care about 2-3 a week with some calcium D3 mixed in. Once a week I give him about 4 supers and some mealies as a treat also sprinkled with calcium no D3

Hello,

Well, it is really an individual issue when it comes to Adenovirus effects on reptiles.
What you can try is an enzyme called Bromelain which is an enzyme found in pineapple & is
helpful for digestive issues. It can be used daily, & is safe.

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
