Skittles vomited

[quigleysmom]

Why would an otherwise healthy dragon vomit. He at a big breakfast, but no more than usual. He suddenly vomited his enitre meal. I did pick through it (yuck) to see if there was a foreign object in it, but it was all collards and butter worms. I have given him some probiotic to make his tummy feel better. Is it possible that he just ate too much. I took out all the food out of his tank. He keeps looking for his salad bowl, but I am afraid to let him eat for a while. What should I look for if he is actually sick? I am really worried about him since we just got him over URI and coccida. Any advise is appreciated.

Hello,

Oh that is too bad!
Yes, he could have just eaten too much which did not sit well in his stomach.
How long has he been off of the medication for now?
Did he eat too fast maybe? Sometimes they can appear to inhale their food & barely even chew it up! LOL
Is he "acting" ill right now & how do his colors look?

Its possible he ate fast or a bit too much. I wouldn't worry unless it happens again.

Thanks for answering. He is acting fine. He has been basking all day near his uvb. There was a lot of worms and they were mostly whole so he probably just ate too fast. I figured I would let him settle until this evening and I would offer him just a few worms to see if he holds them down.
