My dragon has been a total healthy boy for the past 6 years today he was his normal self he pooped, was resting im his tank when he began to convulse and shake, saliva and bits of food came up from his mouth and he heaved like that for several seconds and was fine for about an hour and then he died. No movements in his stomach or chest area. He is cold and dead despite being alive moments prior. If anyone could help me understand I would appreciate it.

Hello,

I am so very sorry that you lost your dragon in that way, how horrifying for you both.:cry:
I really don't know what could have happened since it was so sudden. Could he have
eaten something toxic perhaps?
They are very good at hiding illness until it is often too late.
If you could review your tank setup, diet, etc, maybe we could try to pinpoint anything
that could have been off.

My condolences to you,

Tracie

Aww your profile picture is precious ❤️‍🩹
Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
