This morning Judy's color looks great. Almost no black beard. Shes still reluctant to move tho. And she's pretty flat and looks bloated. And she keeps peeing a very small amount of just eurate.Hello Keith,
Great to see she is slowly getting better! They can have severe symptoms after vomiting, etc which sounds like what happened.
Let her rest & keep her warm overnight to help her heal up. I am glad to hear things are looking better right now.

Hi Tracie,Hello Keith!
I am happy to hear Judy is looking better with an almost normal color in her beard. So, she is obviously feeling
much better now.
Is she breathing normally? I don't think choking would cause impaction but perhaps it has messed up the GI tract
balance some since she vomited previously.
Is she taking fluids for you?
Tracie
I'm just noticing her breathing being funny since the incident.Hello Keith,
How is her breathing? How long has she had a few breathing issues? Try to keep the humidity down right now, since the weather
is getting cooler so she wont catch a cold/respiratory infection.
Will she not take fluids from a dropper or syringe off of her nose?
The urates don't appear hard but that does look like a bit of blood though. When was the last fecal you had done on her?
It could just be related to the recent problems with the worms, etc.
Tracie
She's not providing me w a fecal, lol.Hello Keith,
How are things with your girl, is she still improving I hope?
They can definitely do a fecal on her to see what is going on. Bloodwork is always helpful though it can
be stressful for her. Is she still having breathing issues? Can you think of anything that might be stressing
her out in her tank or the environment?
Tracie
Her color is normal. Her breathing seems ok until we go near her. Then she gulps. Im Gonna have the vet examine her for Respiratory infection and do blood work. I will report back here afterwards...thank youHello Keith,
Let us know how she is doing. Has her breathing improved at all? It does seem strange that she is not moving much but she
could still be a little worn out. Is her beard normal colored?
Keep us posted with the vet visit, too. Bloodwork would be a good idea considering what has happened to her.

So she had 1st dose at Vet. She woke up yesterday looking good. I noticed she started to thermo regulate again by moving in and out of the basking area which she hadn't done since rhe incident. Then she seemed jumpy like she was hungry. I offered her tomato worms and she ate two! First time she has eaten in 9 days!.... things are looking up for sure...Hello,
Well, if she is having some symptoms, due to what happened, it probably would be a good idea. I don't like giving antibiotics
much either but winter is coming up & you don't want her getting a respiratory issue.
How is she doing today?
Be sure to give probiotics too just to help out. I hope she is feeling better soon!
