My beardie has been gaping a lot lately, and has been puffing his beard in a out a few times in a row, several times a day. I'm really worried that he may have a respiratory infection. I seem to have heard a small popping noise coming from him, but I'm not entirely sure. He doesn't sleep vertically (but he used to when he was a baby) But, he does have labored breathing in the night. His temps ranged from 100-110 at his basking spot, and from 75-85 on the cool side. What should I do to rule out if he has a RI or not (I've spent a lot of money on him at the vet, just to find out that nothing was wrong with him.) He's eating and pooping normally, and doesn't seem lethargic. If I do take him to the vet, what tests are run to see if he has an RI? I would like to have a rough estimate of how much things will cost me.
Thanks
