Yoshi's Thread... RIP My Sweet Baby Boy *Necropsy Results*

Ok, so here's the adoption story. I've wanted a lizard of some sort for YEARS. But my mom said no more pets, even though lizards are my favorite animal. So in 2010, as it was approaching my birthday, my good friend Mario (he's my old boss and one of my best friends) asked what I wanted. Originally I said a tattoo. :lol: But the more I thought about it, wanted a way to get a lizard. So I did some asking around and finally my best friend Anna and her husband Zach said I could keep one at their house, which was perfect as they lived three blocks from me and I don't drive. I told Mario I wanted a lizard instead and he agreed that would be his birthday present to me. So I decided on a beardie and started looking around for one. I decided I wanted one with a reddish tinge and my good friend Katie said her professor breeded beardies. She in turn asked about pricing and what I wanted to spend and talked to her prof. So he agreed and sent me some pictures of juvies in my price range. I saw this one reddish one and the rest, as they say, is history. That was in November of 2010.

Now here it is March. Anna and Zach got a house and I moved in with them to watch their kids while they work. So now I actually see Yoshi everyday and he is getting more used to me, although he still gets frightened if I startle him. :roll:

He has been eating around 15 small crix a day but after reading the boards here, I put him in a feeder box today and let him go to town with the crix and he ate about 30 before he lost interest.

I'd love to meet some new beardie lovers as Yoshi and I are new to the site.

Well, my paranoia is getting the best of me. I have an appointment for Yoshi's vet on Monday. With him acting grumpy and his wrinkly side that won't get better, and him deciding he doesn't want to eat his salad suddenly, and not basking, I think it's best to get him checked. I'm thinking he may have parasites which I believe can cause all these symptoms.

Better to take him in and have him be fine than ignore problems, any day!

He's getting so bright! Lovely boy. And glad he's growing! :D

Today was Yoshi's vet visit. He absolutely HATED it, but I gave him some grape bites after we got back so I think he's forgiven me. LOL
Dr. Shrock says Yoshi is very healthy and has great muscle tone and he loves his overall coloring. Said his gums and mouth look great ad he's growing nicely. He weighed 40 grams in February and today he weighed in at 130! He wa very happy to hear that Yoshi eats his salad like a good boy now.

He also got him to poop and ran a fecal. No one has called with results yet, but I should hear something later today.

He's acting completely normal. I swear he heard me make the vet appointment so he decided he'd better quit the brat act he was playing. LOL

Edit: The vet's office called back and Yoshi is negative for all parasites! :)

That's great! Congrats Yoshi!
I was just wondering when you said the vet got him to poop, did he actually MAKE him poop or did he just wait for it lol. :?:

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. 😔
