Hello,

Thanks, the Ceftz is a commonly used medication for respiratory ailments. The medication causes
dehydration easily so definitely keep her hydrated while he is on this. Do you know what the strength
of the solution is, so I can double check the dose? I would need his weight, too.

Hello,

Poor guy, how is he doing? That is stressful to have to give them injections, for sure. Are you going to be
giving them or will the vet show you how & where to give them?
Let us know how things are going & I hope he is feeling better.

Hi Tracie! We give Mirage his 4th injection today! He's been doing much better! I've noticed his breathing hasn't been as raspy. The vet showed us how and where to give him the injections. She told us to do it in his arm in the bicep area. We do one injection every 48-72 hours switching arms each time.

Hello,

That's terrific news, Mirage is doing so much better. It sounds like the infection is starting to clear up if his
breathing is less labored & raspy now. The injections aren't too bad if you know where & how to give them.
Rotating arms is good, so fluid doesn't build up or scar tissue build up is less likely.

Gus - he’s a rescue!
How much water should I be giving my bearded dragon? He will only drink from a dropper when I drop on his nose and I’m not sure if I should give it to him until he won’t drink anymore? Or should I stop after he’s had a certain amount?
Just want to check that if my beardie is ok I managed to get a video of him yawning today and screenshot him with his mouth open does he have mouth rot??? He is eating and drinking normally btw, the discoloration on his left of the mouth has been there for a month but the discoloration on his right side is new
