I just got my juvenile veiled boy 4 days ago. He started showing signs he wasn’t feeling well the second day I had him. Yesterday I took him to the emergency vet where he was diagnosed with pneumonia. Given his previous conditions he was kept in this doesn’t surprise me (small glass box, little...
Yes, he opened his mouth up nice and wide for us to show where not to put it lol. I’m moving this to the health clinic and now I have some additional questions.
I did see him rubbing his eye this morning too, could this be further evidence of something?
I will get that ASAP!
I am checking the temp with a digital thermometer which I know is not ideal and it seems people prefer a temp gun, which I do have on the way now. Bulb is a 75w Arcadia halogen...
So just like D3, they need it but can be dangerous, got it! (A little different but just for understandings sake)
No worries! There's just so much information out there I want to be as informed as possible.
Thank you so much. The directions say do not use for more than a week but I’m planning a vet visit before then. He started gaping today :( I’m very worried about him.
I just got him 2 days ago but called to confirm they were giving him Repti Calcium with D3 and no other supplements at the store.
His new schedule is Repti Calcium without D3 every feeding and will be given Reptivite twice a month. Problem is @Beman also believes he has D3 build up :/
Today's update is not a good one sadly. He woke up with one eye shut and I'm told it's likely due to vitamin A deficiency and to use Repti Turtle Eye Drops as they contain vit A. Would love more input on this decision.
