My dragon has spots that I never seen before.

[ciber 412]

Hi I already been to two vets in my city and my dragon I feel is getting worse. Does anyone know what is this and how can I treat it.He got this prescription but is not doing anything. It feels he is sad or in pain

Hi there, is the first picture what it has progressed to after starting out like the second picture ? What morph is your dragon [ it's beautiful ], I know there are a few types that are white like that. Hypo zeros, wero/s etc.

I remember sa thread when some of the fist Witblits were being sold that some of them seemed to develop a skin condition that looked like this and got much worse over time.

Aw, I'm sorry to hear this ! How long have you had Israet ? Did you get him from a good breeder ? Please post pics of the entire enclosure, including the lights. What are the temp. in all areas of the tank [ hottest, coldest ] ? He seems to have some type of fungal problem and now a respiratory infection.

Hi there, depending on the morph makeup, a lot of trans zeros and trans witblits will eventually start developing a brown/grey/etc splotching to their body as they get older; seemingly more so if the dragon isn't hypo.

However, your dragon appears hypo and while the marks on the back look like it could be that natural color coming through, the issue on the head looks like something else. In the first picture the color on the head looks wet. Did you put something on it or is that how the spot looks?

Can you post some pictures of your setup and a few more pictures of the spots on the head you are concerned with?

What did your vet say?

For the health of this dragon,I was thinking this. I wondered if is a hypo but not really a hypo.
I truly hope all is well.

Remember, I got a boy when I thought it was a girl.
I got orange when he was staged red.
I love them no matter what and wouldn't change a thing.

Hello,

We can review your tank setup to make sure your temperatures & humidity
is correct, in case something might be off.
It looks like it could be fungal in nature. You could try using some raw
unpasteurized honey on those areas, or some silver gel either one.
For now, try to keep him a little warmer overnight. around 75-80F to help
boost his immune system. That may help to deter a respiratory infection to
keep him from getting more ill. if he doesn''t improve, you may need to get
him to a vet to check his lungs, etc.

So sorry to hear this. Are you in the U.S, we might be able to help you find another vet ? Can you post a short video of his breathing ?

 

[Drache613]

Hello,

So your vet doesn't feel he can help him? How is he doing today, has he improved any at all?
Let us know how things are going.

I think I would get a 2nd opinion. It's been my experience that their 1st answer is euthanasia just about every time I go in. I think most of them have no idea how to help so they cover it by saying euthanize them.

Hello,

How is your dragon doing today?
I have to agree with xp29....too often vets just to a rash decision of automatically putting them down
without even trying to find other answers.
