Hello,

I hope you get your Reptisun 10 soon. How is he doing today, is he still lethargic right now or has he eaten anything?
He is a little cutie.
Keep us posted on him.

i managed to get her to eat 1 locust after waving it in front of her face for 2-3 mins :/ but that was it she wouldnt have another.

im taking her to the vet tomorrow also just to make sure, i wanna do everything

 

[elliotuk]

took her to the vets and mentioned about the uvb bulb, he's a reptile expert and said he doesnt believe it but anyway ive changed the bulb to a reptisun now just in case

he also checked her out and said she had pinworm and some kinda of bacteria in her that didnt help, and also did a ultrasound scan and said theres no wood chips in her or anything like that but shes started to produce eggs which could effect her mood also. he gave her some medicine and gotta go back in 3 weeks to check again.

I was saying that i had tried out reptile carpet for a while but found it a fiddle to clean so went back to wood chips as i didnt think they were dangerous and he immediately went round the back and brought back a small glass tube of about 20 wood chips that he had removed from one beardie knocking on death's door only yesterday!!! so ok fair enough im convinced now gonna loose the wood chips

I use non adhesive shelf liner and absolutely love it! So easy to clean and place I also have one slate tile in my young dragons tank on the basking side to help wear his nails.

Also it's fairly cheap and you can get it at walmart.
