Hello,
My bud, iroh, has been mostly in a state of lethargy for 14 days now. He doesn't eat much. Naps most of the time. He still has bowel movements and has gained a little weight during this time. Ive taken him to the vet to see if he could figure out what was going on and they cant find anything yet. Heres (hopefully) a detailed description of the circumstances...
Lighting: reptisun 10.0 ho (just replaced). Temperatures: 80 - 100 degrees
The lethargy started really suddenly. Iroh just wanted to be in his hide in the cool side of his enclosure. He stays somewhat alert peeking at me when i check on him. I do have records of what has happened on a day to day basis (behavior, eating, bathing, bm's) if anyone thinks it relevant. I have had him for 7 months and estimated him to be 2 months old when i got him.
I took iroh to my vet 6 days after this started. He didnt observe anything physically unusual and suggested blood work. The blood work came back today (today is day 14) and the only thing even slightly anomylous was the protein level. I believe he said the range was from 2.5 to 3.5 and iroh was at 3.9. He couldnt draw any conclusions from the blood work. So today i took him back to the vet and he took x-rays and put him on baytril and fortaz. Does anyone have any opinions based off of this info? Id be happy to answer any more questions any feedback is appreciated.
