My beardie just started slightly shaking his head back and forth, what could that be now, I just let some water trickle off my spray bottle onto the tip of his top jaw and he was lapping it up, but now he seems to be opening his mouth wider when he breathes???? omg what kind of sign is that??? and I just weighed him he is 140g

He's probably just not used to drinking that way, maybe got a little too much at one time. He should be fine. By the way, you may want to get a probiotic for if/when you give him the antibiotics....that helps restore the good bacteria [ gut flora ] in his system. Those are also sold on Cheryl's site.

Thank you very much for the info, I heard that I can get him acidophulis or however it is spelled, but that I can get it from walmart and crush it up a pinch a day, is this true?

Hello,

Which watt of the Powersun did you get, the 100 or 160? If you got the 100 watt, you can keep it at a 12-14 inch distance to help with exposure.
Do you have a picture of his tank setup we could see also?
You can get some non dairy acidophiliz capsules or tablets to crush up & sprinkle onto his food with.
I hope he is feeling better soon.

Be sure to increase his tank temperatures overnight to around 80 or so to help with any respiratory issue he may be having.
How often are you giving calcium or are you just now purchasing it?

I got the 100 watt. I can get you a pic. DO I get the non dairy at walmart? I have had it since I bought him, and I give it to him if he eats, but I will go buy the liquid calcium since he hasn't ate in 2 days. I am trying atleast 2x a day

Hello,

Great, the 100 watt should be fine. If you can get it within 12-13 inches that would be great.
You can go ahead & give him the non dairy acidophiliz daily, if you would like. Just a tiny pinch is all he needs.
You can look for the Zilla liquid calcium at the petstore or Boneaid by T-rex if they carry that. Let me know which brand you get & I can help with dosing it for you.
How is he doing today?

I tried giving him mustard greens which are his fav greens, he wont eat them, tried a wax worm, he wont eat them either, and I dusted the worms before giving them to him. he has not ate in 3 days as of right now

 

[Zipperdoodles]

update, he ate a good amount of mustard greens drenched in water, and his tongue is pink and he is getting color back, and his meds are on their way!!!!! Things are looking up, thank you guys so much for all your help!!!!

 

[Drache613]

Hello,

Yes you can go get some probiotic since he will be on meds. It will help quite a bit for him.
How is he doing today, any improvements?
I am happy to hear he ate some mustard greens for you. It sounds like he is feeling a little better.

for the past 2 days he has been eating alot of mustard greens that I spray with water, and shrimp that was bought from petsmart, plus got him liquid calcium and he gets 3 drops of that a day

Hello!

How is he doing today?
Which brand of liquid calcium did you get, Zilla?
Let me know on that & his weight so I can dose him with it to be sure he is getting enough for his body weight.
How is his appetite doing? Please keep us posted on him. I hope that he improves for you.
