Hello all, I havent even made up my profile yet. My beardie is having seizures. Oscar is aprox 6-8 weeks old. Just purchased 3 days ago. Was perfectly healthy. Eating GREAT! Has a basking lamp, uvb reptisun 5.0 and a red night lamp. The pet shop was feeding him romaine lettuce. I do not know if she was giving him any calcium or vitamins. I will be going back tomorrow to find out. I give him pellets, turnip greens, fruit salad (bananas, bell peppers, grapes, mango) and tried dead crickets and mealworms(didnt eat). 2 days ago tried mealworms and pin head crickets, LOVED THE LIVE CRICKETS of course. Ate a few mealworms. Pooped today and yesterday undigested mealworms, so of course I stopped giving them. Hasnt ate at all today. I did dust the crickets and they are gutloaded. Today my hubby noticed him seizing. I took him out of the tank and he seized again in my hands. Lasts maybe 30-60 seconds. Happens mostly when he gets picked up. Gave him a warm bath to see if he was impacted. He doesnt feel impacted and he looks completely normal. Seized twice while in the bath. He eyes the crickets now but wont move to get them. He can lift his head and open his eyes normal. This is not my first bearded but it is the first I have had that seized. Please help!
