[QUOTE="amr17, post: 1996016, member: 90097"] My bearded dragon was perfectly healthy yesterday, she is around 7 yrs old, she was running around & had a bowel movement it was either yesterday or the day prior. The movement seemed healthy, i guess a little bit more watery than normal but nothing crazy or concerning. I'm pretty sure it was yesterday but my bf thinks it was the day before but either way it was one of those(she has this weird thing about going to the bathroom in her tank where she basically will not do it at all costs& will start basically attacking the glass of her tank scratching &jumping up at the glass until we take her out& where we usually place her on some paper towels & she immediately goes, so anyways it was definitely one of the last two days& after she ran around for a while with plenty of energy & fine) So... Today suddenly I was going to put a salad in her tank when I noticed she was on her rock really lopsided to the point she was like almost sideways & it looked very odd like something was wrong & When I got closer I noticed that she wasn't moving or blinking or anything &her stomach looked like a balloon it was so enormous like it was going to explode, I freaked out& called my bf down& by the time he came down like 10 seconds later she basically fell of the rock completely onto her back no movement& looking dead, both her stomach& her beard literally look like they've been pumped up with air like a balloon. At first I just thought something was really wrong but then my boyfriend said she was definitely dead. I think she is dead also but I want to be sure& understand what happened. My bf thinks the bloated swelling look is probably like how when humans are dead& decompose they do that from all the gas released. Is that something that bearded dragons also do, how quickly would that occur under the heat lights, or is that not normal & likley from whatever caused her death? I can't figure out what would cause this so suddenly when she was totally fine just yesterday. [/QUOTE]
