i recently aquired another beardie, she seems very sick. i need some opinions on getting her to wake up and eat something so i can get her healthy again
all she does is lay there with her eyes shut, if i pick her up she will open one eye slowly and move a little. as soon as i set her down she will close her eye and procede not to do anything but lay there stiff.
she does move throughout the enclosure through the day and is not alert enough to take crickets or mealworms, she wont even look at lettuce. if i put food infront of her face she will close the one eye and not do anything
i believe she is over a year old, if not somewhere near there...she also doesnt respond to baths, will also lay there not moving with her eyes shut.
she is very skinny and this is concerning me
also earlier when i moved her from the log to her dish she sat there unresponsive and it looked like she was holding her breath. then she exhausted all of the air in her lungs and opened her mouth, she did it again and made a clicking sound (kind of looked like she was dry heaving).
she ate 2 mealworms the day i brought her home, and she may have eaten 3/4 of one today but im not sure (so almost 3 worms in 3 days)
someone please help, i really dont want to lose her.
