so im back on here again needing help with an animal thats not a bearded dragon lol. i found a baby mouse stuck in some syrup today. i cleaned it up the best i could and got it set up in a tub with some bedding, water, and oats. i called a vet and all we could figure out is that its probably no younger than 2 weeks. its eyes are open, it has fur, it has teeth, and its fast. it weighs 5 grams. we are gonna get some kitten milk replacer because they dont get weaned until 3 or 4 weeks old. does anyone have any advice on how to care for it?? or somewhere else i could go to get advice? i joined a forum called fancymicebreeders but im waiting on a reply. the plan is to release it once we catch an adult who can care for it but who knows if we will be able to.

Maybe get a heating pad and put something over it so it does not accidentally burn the guy (Put it on low) and so it doesn't die of the cold. Keep the little guy warm! Look at a store to help you get your supplies or maybe Amazon has some heating pads for mice and some other stuff for it. Like @xp29 said, Look at YouTube for help with your little guy ^^

Swordtail has been doing a whole lot of "Lizard yoga" lately
Currently trying not to stress over my anemic dragon....she is being treated, but I don't agree with her treatment plan and have been seeking out a second opinion from another vet. If anyone else has dealt with anemia, please let me know how it was resolved. I am losing sleep over this :cry:
Another post lol. My beardie does not like enclosures. Her tank is the kids room and she has created a nesting/bed spot in the corner. She will cuddle with my son but she know when the lights are out and the kids go to sleep, she literally goes to her bed like she is our 3rd baby. I love her. And to think, I never wanted a beardie lol
Please help. My beardie is my baby and I am worried she may be egg bound but I can't tell. She is over 2 yrs old and has never laid an egg. She has been swollen for two days and can't tell if she may be impacted or egg bound. Please help.
I'm still looking to adopt. I live near Homerville Georgia.
