Hey guys, haven't been on in a while but im having some problems. My beardie is having a hard time keeping food down. It started out as just runny poop, thought maybe it was just cause he drank too much and didnt eat enough. Then it began to get a little worse so i started him on a reptaid treatment, it did help a little while his ten day cycle lasted. Now that he is off, he has gotten worse. Also he is eating less and less. Now on his off time of reptaid he is throwing up. It seems almost like he just cant digest the exoskeletons of his food anymore. He throws up mush balls of dubia and crickets (sorry...) He has only thrown up his salad once. Also, his poop now looks only partly digested, i can see his bugs in it. To combat this, i was thinking about trying out acidophiliz to help his digestive system. If i do try this, should i also continue to use the reptaid? i dont want a crazy mix that may harm him.
Thanks for any info

This sounds like it could be a parasite issue of some kind, which needs to be taken care of by a vet asap. Let us know how it goes and, they will need a stool sample.

In the meantime, could you tell us...
What size tank he is in?
What are your temps? basking and cool side.
What are you using to measure the temps?
What are you using as a source or UVB? tube or coil? or other.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
