Those small red cinnamon flavored candies that are popular during Valentines.

My lizard ate one. She's just over 14 inches long.

What should I do. She doesn't seem like she's in any pain at all. It happened about five minutes ago. It is not lodged in her throat, it went inside of her.

I have never heard of anything like that happening. I dont know what to tell you the effect would be. Definitely keep an eye on her, and if anything seems out of the ordinary, a vet visit would be in order.
Hope your beardie is ok.

She only ate one?I wouldnt panic although it may give her a tummy ache she will live through it with some help from you.First I would make sure you get her hydrated by giving her a bath.I would also start her on a probiotic to get her gutflora in order.You can use benebac,acidophilliz,SOY yogurt or bee pollen.The thing I would worry about her is the sugar so be sure not to give her any fruit or anything else that will increase her sugar levels any higher,ok?

Ok. Thank you very much, Vickson.

I was extremely worried not just because of the sugar but because of the cinnamon coating irritating her stomach.

Your welcome and like I said she may get a tummy ache and you will want to help her through that but other then that she will be ok.

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. 😔
