her last poop was 2 days ago. its hard to have stuff come out when you can get stuff in.
she still closes her eyes alot. i've been giving her reptaid hoping it would help with her appetite and over all feeling better, but i've not had much luck
i've been talking with her vet about the egg issue. she never saw a reason to do an Xray. wether there were eggs or not we had to get Annie healthy again. then she started showing gravid colors. i was giving her liquid calcium and vitamin d at first. then suplimenting her food with "T-Rex"...
I really don't know what to do for this girl. there was about a 3 week window in all of the time that i've had her that she lived on her own. and then for some reason she stopped.
a few weeks ago i thought she had broken her leg by falling in her cage. today i got home from school/work and...
oh, i had heard european countries did not put fluoride in the water. i guess i heard wrong information :confused:
EDIT: this is from 2000, it could have changed... "Sweden:
"Drinking water fluoridation is not allowed in Sweden...New scientific documentation or changes in dental...
in humans it would. in humans it can also turn saliva yellow. maybe check her mouth?
then again, maybe it just a one time freak occurance. watch her for any odd behavior and see how her shed is next time.
hahaha! ya fluoride
"The US Public Health Service has stated that fluoride makes the bones more brittle and the dental enamel more porous."
"fluoride is more poisonous than lead and just slightly less poisonous than arsenic. It is a cumulative poison that accumulates in bone over the...
just got back from his normal vet. she said abcess. its too small to lance and drain but watch for any more to pop up anywhere in his body. the culture/sensitivity test will be back in a week. finish out the Baytril the emergency vet gave me. its won't clear the whole infection up but it might...
i was told that stress causes their horns to grow different. you can see at the tips of his horns there is a curve. thats about the time i got him. it was probably the stress of moving caused them to grow funny for a while, now their okay. Although he'll probably get another kink in his horns...
AFTER:
hims is mad at meee.....
the inside is still very swollen, and there is a chunk that looks like chicken fat, i tried to get it off as well but i wouldn't move.
the biggest chunk that came off. there was a 2nd about half this size.
i think it is so cute you named her gumby!
Chris Anderson thinks very strongly it is a temporal gland infection. the emergency vet i took him to yesterday (Sunday) said it was an abcess. i honestly have no idea. i'm going with whatever anybody else thinks. Chris really seems to know his...
i zoomed in on one picture and colored all of the swollen/inflamed area red
his normal vet has only one opening for 4 PM, or i can go sit in there and wait for something to open maybe sooner. but Annie's vet opens at 9, i'm going to call her and see whats available there. i know the two...
okay. thank you very much chris for taking the time to share all of that information. i will be skipping the first day of class tomorrow to take him to the vet :o
his temple is a little swollen, you were right. i tried putting pressure on it with his mouth open (even had a Q-tip in there to catch any pus) but nothing came out. you can see a spot where it looks like it wants to bleed. ...the baytril is not going to help is it?
that damn emergency vet...
