I’m really worried about Rexy…

[KeepNupwithJoneseys]

*Update* I just left the vet with Rexy and she had a slight respiratory infection and is being tested again for parasites. We also got much clearer X-rays this time. Doctor thinks because there is some blood in the stool it’s most likely parasites as well. We’ve got medicine and Rexy got some fluids too. We’re on the road to recovery now. Thank you for all the prayers!

Hope all goes well now and she is ok.

That's great news. Keep fighting Rexy!

Great news! Rexy is a fighter!!

I kept talking to her and asking her to fight through it. She is such a strong girl. The Vet was impressed and said I was on top of her care. I appreciate all the advice and guidance I’ve been given in this group. I have a screen enclosure with a background that covers the sides and back. Would it be beneficial to put a shower liner on half of the top screen to increase humidity at night?

So glad that you got some answers and treatment for Rexy. Hopefully she’ll get thru this quickly and back to good health.
I would advise to leave the top open for full ventilation.

Good morning from Rexy and I! She had her meds and some food and water with a little help from me. One day at a time.

Poor little thing! She looks like she’s been run through the mill but she’ll be doing much better. I’m praying for her and you as well.

I feel so bad. She was so weak at the vet but she’s actually much more alert today and she’s had two crickets and one silkworm this morning.

To help with hydration and building up her strength, maybe give an extra silkworm.

I’ll definitely do that! Thank you so much for the advice.

Second silk worm of the day!

Yum yum!
