So, I’m either a paranoid first time beardie owner or my dragon just gets sick a lot and it always resolves on its own. Its likely that I just get paranoid with any little change in behavior. So, starting from the beginning, my little girl Ryuk had gotten really lethargic and sick, vet had thought it to be follicular stasis, quarantine prevented us from ever going to get surgery or confirmation scans to prove that it in fact was what it was. It has been quite a while and quite frankly if she had follicular stasis she would’ve died from it already without treatment. (Thank god she’s still here with us) My assumption was that it either was not ever follicular stasis and whatever it was resolved, or she reabsorbed the follicles. Regardless, she had started doing a lot better for a while. Well now she has all of the sudden stopped digesting her food properly. She still has an appetite and eats plenty though. I took in a fecal sample to be tested and they said she does not have parasites. Her temps are what they have always been between 95-100 and someone said to try bumping her temps a bit so I tried 100-105 for a bit but she stopped basking. I moved her temps back down but now her poops have become small and infrequent. I have gotten a lay box for her and she has shown no interest in it at all until today. Today I decided to let her stay in there for a few hours and she started to dig in little cave and then stopped and was trying to get out of the lay box for the rest of the time. This is the first time she has ever dug in it at all. Could this be starting signs that she is about to lay? Could the poop problems be related to her just being chocked full of eggs? Also note that after the follicle issue had resolved and she started feeling better she gained quite a bit of weight, her belly does look lumpy like there may be eggs in it. She just overall doesn’t seem to be enjoying herself recently and has stress marks and just isn’t happy. Should I continue putting her in her lay box? How often and for how long? She licks the sand a lot while she is in there and that also worries me about impaction. How could I prevent Impaction from her “smelling” around and licking the sand? She is already having poop problems id hate to add onto it with sand. Im sort of at a loss with what to do and nobody can quite help tell me what’s going on with her so far. Any advice would be welcomed.
