Hi everyone, I have my girl two courses of medication (Tolturazil 5%) and she hasnt changed at all. Everyone was saying that because of her smelly poos, tiredness, and ill look in her eyes it could be coccidia, but after that medication she just hasnt improved at all, and her poos are just as bad? Any idea what it could be?!

Thanks

Hi there.....some beardies have smelly poos regardless of illness...., after all it S poo ! But she may just be plain old tired from being sick in the first place, just like some people get over illness better than others. Did you give her a probiotic [ like Benebac or Acidophiliz+ or soy yogurt ] along with the meds, to restore the good gut flora ! Also, can you list her set up, what type + brand of lights [ be specific ] and temps ? Is she staying hydrated ? Try some water mixed with baby food chicken or squash to get her hydrated better, that might help.

Hi there, she has been off the medication for a while now, and yeah during the medsI gave her Acidophilus+ and baths every day. And her setup is a 4x1.5x2, she has a 70cm arcadia uv tube 5 months old, with a ceramic heater. Her temps are 34C daily and 29 on a night, with 31C in the cool end and a basking of 38C... her diet is mainly crickets, she occasionally has calciworms, wax worms, locusts... and her foods are dusted with calcium and vitamin dust, she has frequent bowel movement so I dont think it is impaction because she is on a bark bedding...

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
