Gasping for air UPDATED CHECK COMMENTS

[Cassieo8]

Just like every day, happy and normal. I think it was pretty close, I took the distance away a bit and it looked like she was a bit more comfortable. And can you get a temp gun at a regular pet store? And if so how much do they usually cost?

ZooMed makes a temp gun that is available at a lot of pet stores. It usually costs around $20-30. It's called ReptiTemp.

If you decide to get one online, this is probably a better deal: http://www.amazon.com/Nubee-Temperature-Non-contact-Infrared-Thermometer/dp/B00CVHIJDK

I will get one tomorrow as I was busy today. Thank you. She seems better and isn't hanging her moth open often, haven't seen her do it yet but she's still doing that thing where she forces or air like a human burp lol but not that often

Hello,

That is good to hear she isn't gaping as much. I think once you get the temperatures adjusted correctly that if she had been developing a respiratory issue then she should be able to recover nicely from it without any medical intervention at all.
Let us know how she is doing.

Thankyou both so much for your help. I will update you in a few days. I will be getting another light for her tho as I know she's not getting the right temps as I read the box and it says at even 4 inches it gets to 39 Celsius and she's about 14 inches away so that's about 30-31 Celsius

Hello,

That sounds good. I hope you are able to get the temperatures where they need to be.
Is she doing better today? Let us know how things are coming along & how she is doing.
Lighting & heating make all of the difference in the world.
