Noticed he wasn’t asleep at his usual time tonight. He still ate all his roaches for dinner. My humidity is at the low side of about 18% but noticed this hiccup/ or cough. I did dust his roaches with calcium tonight for dinner. Still pooped today it looked normal. Possible RI?

Could it be he’s breathed in some calcium powder?

Hello,

Did he just start this breathing behavior today? The humidity of 18% is low so unless he got chilled
somehow in a bath or aspirated some fluids I wouldn't think that he has a respiratory infection developing.
Be sure to keep him a little warmer overnight, around 75-80F to boost his system right now in case he
may be getting ill.

Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
cookie event at my library today, quite fun! Made some bracelets for my comrades too, to give them at church in the morning. Got a busy day tomorrow even though I’m off work… i go back on tuesday so atleast I’ll have 2 days off to rewind….then back to hell lol
The head tilt tho! Aaaahhh
