I am going to upload a picture of his poop, you have been warned!

For half a week now my beardie has been pooping weirder than usual. It started with him having a bit of an issue passing his stool (I had to help him get the rest out by gently pulling it out the rest of the way) then it turned to him being slightly bloated. That's when I started to be worried, then he had a stool with a liquid urate, which concerned me more. Now his poop is solid and comes out in 2 chunks and his urate is white and intact, but liquid still comes out with it.

I made an appointment for next Monday, but I need to know it I need to get him seen sooner.

Thanks,
Rebekah Hoffman

Hello,

That's great Sherlock is doing good! Which medication did you give him for flushing out any
parasites? The antibiotic eye drops should help clear up the eye. Perhaps he just got some
dirt or other debris in there, or some shed which caused irritation.
He should do just fine for you now. I know it's virtually impossible not to worry about them, we
all do.

I meant to write that the vet gave him medication for that.

Hello,

It sounds like the medication has worked pretty well for him.
How is his appetite doing so far?

Tracie
His appetite died down for a day and a half where I couldn't get him to eat anything, he was getting pretty thin. But then he started eating again. I have a feeling after the forcing of medicine he just didn't trust me at the moment. But he is doing better! His eye is still closing even with the eyedrops, but it doesn't seem to be getting worst.

Hello,

Oh bless him! They tend to not like most medications & it stresses them out. I'm glad that he finally
started eating again & is improving again.
I hope that the eye drops start to help his eye but good to hear his eye doesn't seem to be getting
worse.
Keep us posted on his progress.

Tracie

I can’t wait to see Dr.Wilson be a big dragon but I try to cherish hard the moments while he still fits in my hand 🦎
It’s been a month since I’ve joined bd.org! It feels like it’s been longer than that, but I’m glad I’m here and apart of this lovely community!
I can feel her staring into my soul demanding food
She was having a staring contest with a mealworm. I guess I never taught her to not play with her food, lol.
