- Beardie name(s)
- Inanna
Hey- so my beardie didn’t poop for a week until today, but was eating a bit more, and was not basking, even if I put her in her basking spot. (I think she’s going through a brumation like phase so that may be why?) so today I decided to give her a soak to see if she’d go, as she was blackening a little on her beard. She was closing her eyes while in the water, and then when she actually tried to go, she was straining a lot. She did go, but not a lot, definitely think she could go more. She was straining pretty hard after, like shaking her whole body was shaking straying to push and her cloaca? (I think that’s what it’s called) was bulging quite a bit. Now that she’s went a little, she’s lightened up a tinyyy bit. And she’s basking right now, so hopefully that helps her a little. She won’t drink any water, and she didn’t eat yesterday, although that’s not super abnormal for her. Do I need to take her to the vet asap or is this something I can monitor and help at home? I’m not sure how to best help her and make sure she’s safe.
