My lizard is having diarrhea

[Ashtenrichards00]

So I’ve noticed my baby acting weird when I switched her light so nervously I googled her symptoms. With hours of research my lizard had every possible disease ever known and I know that cannot be true so I have come here for help
My beardie is about 8 years old she really only eats greens I have calcium I give her and pellets with vitamins but these pass weeks she’s been having Watery diarrhea it smells but not clear the room smell It’s green and looks like her food wasn’t digested but the sack thing is still white it was alittle orange today but I gave her some carrots I still don’t think I have the right lighting. She eats normal and is active I have a fluckers 150w basking light. What I’ve done in the past is let her go outside to get the natural rays but the weather hasn’t been warming up do I need to get another kind of light or is it parasites Please help.

Welcome to the forum---- what kind of UVB do you have and where in the tank is it? On top of screen or inside tank?

Hello,

Sorry your girl is having issues with diarrhea, that cannot be fun for her.
If she isn't digesting well then she may not be warm enough.
Please review your tank setup with us a bit more, such as the type/brand of UVB lighting,
temperatures & the type of thermometer used, brands of supplements, etc. How long have
you been feeding the pellets to her & does she eat them?
Since she is having some trouble right now, you can try giving chicken or turkey baby food,
mixed with squash baby food, or sweet potato baby food, daily to help out with nutrition. Is
she losing weight?
Post pictures of your girl, along with her tank setup too.
