Hi all,
My beardie (9 months old) stopped eating about 6 weeks ago, he's been back and fore to the vet and had various samples taken. They've treated him for an infection (antiobiotics) coxcydia and worms as these showed up on his tests. I'm feeding him every 3 days with cat food as he won't eat himself... it was every day but the vet has suggested cutting down in case feeding him is stressing him out.
I'm just getting really worried about him as he doesn't seem to be getting any better. He ignores any food I put in his tank and spends most of his time just sleeping. He only livens up when I take him out to give him his calcium and food and bath every few days.
His tempratures in the tank are within the right amounts, he has a repti-carpet (no sand) and he lives on his own.
Can anyone recommend anything else I can try? Is he lonely? Does he want some sand to dig in?
ANy help or advice much appreciated
