[QUOTE="Lumber girl, post: 2015387, member: 117502"] Post-vet appt update: Unsure of gender. I will look into this more and see if we can determine our beardie's gender. Dehydration. Vet gave them subcutaneous fluids Stool samples sent out for testing Started on anti-worm medicine. Once per every 2 weeks/3 total doses Suggested continuing with calcium 3x week. Our beardie recently started refusing any powdered bugs, so we moved to liquid calcium on mealworms knowing they would eat them right away. This is what had me worried--maybe too many mealworms was causing an impaction. Was seeing a few undigested bugs last week when they were still eating, and they weren't pooping. This is what first got on my radar that something wasn't right, then they started the glass surfing. Got a pouch of critical care carnivore to feed 4x day. Follow up in 3 weeks unless they need to be seen before then. The vet said to replace my UV light, which is about 6 months old. It is a tube Zoo Med ReptiSun 10.0 uvb T5HO 39W 34". We have a 4x2x2 viv. Been having issues getting the basking temp correct. I can't help but think the lighting is causing a lot of feeding problems, but now they aren't drinking in the bath either. Not acting sluggish or anything. Glass surfing seems to be right before and right after pooping. Not sure if there's a correlation, but this mornings was urate and liquid. Vet also said the warm area needed to be closer to 93⁰? Does that sound right? I hate questioning advice from an expert, but wanted to know actual "user experience". Thanks again for all the input! You've all been incredibly helpful! [/QUOTE]
