hey Guys Blu 6 months old, and has had diarrhea the past two days. I always take her to the vet as soon as she shows odd symptoms. She was dewormed about a month ago and she had been normal. A week ago, she started making odd gulping and popping sounds as if she is trying hard to swallow something. I’m very worried she may be in pain as she shows stress lines and hints of black in her beard. I was also inconsistent with her calcium but have returned to giving it to her 5x a week along with vitamins 2x a week. These are her terrarium conditions:

-40 gallon tank
-Reptisun 10.0
-Zoo med 100 w heat bulb
-repticarpet
-repcal with d3
-reptivite with d3
-superworms, crickets,
-I recently stopped giving her Romaine and switched to mustard greens and collard greens

Her vet appointment is until Monday but I’m hoping there is something I can do in the meantime :( any suggestions?

It might have been the romaine, but doesn't sound serious. Is she still eating well ? Still the popping sound ? Sometimes that may be an R.I. Keep her night temps around 80 just in case to help boost her metabolism + immune system. Tell the vet about the popping noises, she may need antibiotics [ usually Baytril /enrofloxacin ] She should be O.K . :)

Since she had diarrhea I’m currently staying away from food and instead I’m giving her Emeraid IC for omnivores which I received from the vet when she had parasites. It’s like a baby formula that smells like chicken soup which she loves. I’m not sure what’s wrong because anytime I leave her in her tank she turns a dark color even if she’s basking. As soon as I pick her up her mood and color change and I’m not sure if that’s normal. She’s being super clingy. As for the popping noises, I haven’t heard them today but I’m still going to take her to the vet. Thank u for taking the time to read and reply!

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!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
