Help help help!hurry please!!

[channi]

she is probably hardly moving now because it is late and she is exhausted, let her sleep now and check on her in the morning.

how long did you leave her in th water for?

Hmm didn't think of this when approaching this thread but is it possible the place you washed her in had any shampoos or soaps in it at all? Even on the sides? From what you said it sounds like my dog when we shampooed him, he was allergic to the shampoo and jumped around and rolled and went crazy for 2 days. Never heard of itchiness in Lizards, First time for everything though.

how long did you soak her for? the skin may not have taken in any water so you cant get it off

 

[dougie210]

We didn't soak her

Dougie, as everyone keeps sayin, we cant diagnose what is wrong with your BD. If you are THAT concerned about her, then call the vet. They can at least advise you over the phone. You can keep posting sayin what she is doing, but there is very little that we can offer that hasn't already been said. She may be gravid, I wouldnt think MBD at 2yrs old without previous signs, but she could be hypocalcaemic if she is gravid and not getting enough calcium. She could have mites or be irritated by something, there are many possibilities.

If you are so worried about her, call a vet for advice or call a professional herper that you know in your area.

How can we get calcium in her, so she doesn;t die?

 

[=bECS=]

OMG leave her, don't stress her to the max! Call the vet if your really concerned, otherwise leave her, seperate her from the others if you can if they are bothering her.
Don't go putting her in water, poking and prodding her etc!

Calcium takes time to be absorbed, you can mix up some powder in water if thats all you have, and put a few drops on her nose to lick it off.

Personally id leave her.......

Out of curiosity what are you using as a substrate? Could that have irritated her?

 

[dougie210]

We are using white sand

 

[=bECS=]

did you wash it? how are are the other beardies acting?

i think bec is right, dont over stress her

 

[dougie210]

We have left them alone for about 30mins now-the other beardies are all fine, perfect like normal

 

[Justie]

white sand isnt the best substrate to use either.. i would avoid sand all together... i have seen way too many cases of impaction from beardies being kept on sand... LIKE OTHERS HAVE SAID RING A VET!!!

 

[Sturdy]

howd it go
ive been watching this thread closely to see the outcome.

 

[Bugsy]

Hmmm, lots of advice, and 5 pages later, you still havent listened to any of it. If you really care about the beardy, get the poor thing to a VET.

 

[dougie210]

We are taking to vet this morning!!Far out i have been listening to what people are saying and i am thankful, for it all

 

[Rocky]

Would love to hear any updates. How did the vet trip go, how was she this morning, any changes. When possible good luck.

Good to hear.

 

[Kimbully]

Results? What did the vet say?

 

[dougie210]

We took her to the vet today, they thought our beardies were wicked lol, as they don't see many reptiles, well it when quite fine, she looked a bit better than last night, but she is still sick, so they are ringing a specialist tonight or tomorow to see what the problem is, but i don't think she is going to die
