Hi,
I posted last week about possible bloat in my bearded dragon, and I'm don't necessarily think she's bloated and that maybe that was the angle my daughter was holding her. However, she still is uninterested in food after coming out of brumation. I have soaked her in a warm bath and she's been hanging out under the UVB light.
Just now I put her in her feeding bin to see if she'd be interested in a roach, and noticed a little puddle of liquid under her nose when I picked her up (she was uninterested in the roach). The liquid is coming from her nose, and as I touched her nose a long thin strand of clear liquid stuck to my finger. She did not want to be placed downward to try to drain it (as I read here to do), and crawled out of my hand onto the basking ledge. She briefly opened and then closed her mouth and I noticed moisture in her mouth. Not foamy bubbles, and I don't think she's drooling, but her mouth was wet.
We do have an appointment with her vet for Tuesday but I want to be sure to do what I can before then. The emergency clinics here don't see reptiles.
Her tail is dark as are her shoulders.
Temp under her basking light is 104, and humidity is 31%.
Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks
Shannon
