    Is this normal?

    I would add that if you are thinking she is not getting enough fluids you can use baby food. You can bath more often for awhile too. When mine was sick I feed him a plunger full of baby organic food this adds fluids & nutrition (chicken & kale). Be careful of the ingredients because sometimes...

    Starting to reconsider getting bearded dragon

    i Would recommend waiting until kids are much older. If you don’t have time & don’t handle often then they become isolated. Also, mine currently is 19in long and 9.5in in diameter so they become large fast. Mine just recently go very sick and it was a full time job getting him healthy again...

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    Absolutely the baby food is going away. Maybe as a treat sometimes but it’s not a healthy permanent solution. We are about three weeks into having medications. I am slowly going to switch him over...I have a feeling that he is going to act like the sky is falling but it’s time to think about...

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    So we are still doing well. He went and stayed a a veterinarian techs home for 10 days because we had to leave town. He took his meds great but not too much solid food. He really loves baby food turns out being fed in a plunger & did not poop for a week. He came home last night and I gave him a...

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    The lights all got changed out. I covered his climbing rock that’s under the basking light in a towel because I think the rock was getting way too hot. He is spending much more time under the light now without gaping. Using the infrared thermal temp gun to make sure temps are good. I am giving...

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    We are still doing good. Has perked us greatly and has even taken a few live mealworms. He is getting “plumper” and is very alert & curious. I have been fanatical about his care for two weeks and things are looking up thank goodness! Today he showed me his sexy pose but you can see his legs are...

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    We are still doing one day at a time. He is taking the medication & the food I force feed him in the plunger. He has been eating some vegetables put out...offering lots of different kinds because any food is better than no food. One bath a day to stay hydrated & keep digestion going. He has had...

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    We have decided to give him a special food called Emeraid IC twice a day...it’s a goo type thing that I coax him to take. Also, he is on a antibiotic & anti inflammatory. Doing this until Friday when we do a recheck. Hopefully we will have a clear improvement and not declining in weight. He...

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    Well I spoke too soon. On a review of the X-ray by the top exotic doctors this morning they decided that fluid was built up in his abdomen. I am taking him back in about a hour to do a ultrasound and see about next steps. Hopefully it’s a treatable situation.

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    Thanks for all the advice...on Sunday I decided to take little man into the vets. They called in the exotic department and all the students were super excited to treat a dragon. They kept him for the afternoon & took X-rays and did a physical. Nothing showed on X-ray but we decided to do...

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    Thank you for the advice. I am digesting the info and making the changes. Right now he is in his outside enclosure getting some sun. We don’t use pesticides & I can monitor him so it’s a very safe. He is stretched out & awake. I do live in a area that is one of the top vet school in the world...

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    Thank you for any advice. This is him currently. Been asleep for two days in his panda. The jungle rope has the UB light & the fake limb has his red & white heat lights. In next weeks he is getting a upgrade to a larger enclosure. No sand and the black specks are from the rope.

    Sleeping Dragon Question from 1st Time Mom

    So Dolomite is a little over a year. In the past few weeks he has decided to snuggle up to me & then fall asleep and when I move him back to the enclosure he sleeps for a few days. He is not super hungry when he wakes up but still enjoying his carrot tops and some worms. He gets fed fresh...
