I'm so sad. We found that our surprise baby had passed away this morning. She was fine last night and eating fruit flies. Not sure what we did wrong. Very, very sad.

I don't think anyone here can even answer your question adequately (or legally unless there are vets that read these forums!) without performing a physical exam, getting x-rays, lab work and perhaps a culture to figure out the organism causing the infection. I find it so sad that you...

I am so sorry to hear for your loss. <Hugz> It is funny how these little cold blooded creatures become some ingrained in our hearts.

Thanks for sharing!!! I love the name - very appropriate for the colors!

My husband and I have an Asian long-tailed lizard named "Vernon." We've had him for about three months. This morning, my husband woke up and found a tiny little long-tailed lizard. When we looked around a little more in the cage, we found another unhatched egg. We think that "Vernon" was...

He sure is a handsome boy!!! We have one that size but his eye protruds - kind of bug eyed!!!

Hello all, My husband and recently lost our beautiful little beardie. She had a wasting disease of some sort that didn't respond to antibiotics. (She went into the exotic vet 3 times - with no clear underlying problem.) Our vet will be performing a necropsy on her to figure out what went...

From what I've read, Uromastyx don't drink. Many of the species live in the Saharan Desert where water isn't available. Their bodies have adapted to this and have a physiological process that converts food nutrients into hydration. (Source Deer Fern Farms). There have been reports of...

Hello all, I've been lurking in this forum since March 2010. I've learned a lot about chameleon husbandry and ensuring that my babies get the best care they can. After all this lurking, I thought I would introduce myself - my name is Lyzz. My husband, Ian, and I have 8 lizards (2...
