    super hard urate

    Hello, If the urate is that hard, try giving some sugar free applesauce or canned pumpkin to help increase the fiber in the GI tract. If you can, use a plastic dropper or syringe to get extra oral fluids into her. How old is your dragon? If she is 1 year or older, you can back down on the...

    a localized color change on the scales

    Hello, I agree with Sadie, it does appear to be a small patch that is going to shed. It doesn't look like an injury at all, I don't believe it is fungal in nature. Keep an eye on that area & you could get some raw unpasteurized honey to put on it, if it doesn't seem to be clearing up like...

    Hello, I totally understand, the feeling of sorrow is emotionally draining. It takes a long time to be able to move on from the loss of such a beloved family member. Pepper will always be with you. Tracie

    Just Found Out My Male Beardie Nova is Actually a Female with possible eggs

    Hello, That is wonderful news Nova came through surgery successfully. It sounds like the right decision since she had a lot of follicles still. If one burst it's a good thing everything was taken care of so quickly so she didn't start on a decline from that. Hopefully there is no infection...

    Just Found Out My Male Beardie Nova is Actually a Female with possible eggs

    Hello! Great, I am sure that she will get through the surgery just fine. Well, that is if she still needs the surgery. Hm, perhaps the follicles have been absorbed, the ultrasound will show. I am glad she is doing well & basking! Tracie

    Just Found Out My Male Beardie Nova is Actually a Female with possible eggs

    Hello, You can certainly get another ultrasound to see if anything has changed internally. Has the vet scheduled her surgery yet? I am glad to hear she is still eating & basking, so it sounds like she is feeling pretty good. She looks happy there. Tracie

    Just Found Out My Male Beardie Nova is Actually a Female with possible eggs

    Hello, Ok, if she is truly having some trouble, spaying is usually the way to go so she wont develop peritonitis. They are right though if she is full of follicles but can't lay them for whatever reason she could have a follicle burst & develop an infection. At least she is still eating &...

    Just Found Out My Male Beardie Nova is Actually a Female with possible eggs

    Hello! That is a huge possibility, of contributing to pneumonia with developing follicles. The vet wants to spay her? It is difficult getting medication into them if it is bitter. Did they flavor it at all? Try using grape or apple juice, that is usually well tolerated. Her weight sounds...

    Just Found Out My Male Beardie Nova is Actually a Female with possible eggs

    Hello! So sorry, I didn't see this message! How is your girl, poor thing, pneumonia? I wonder if it is related to her developing follicles? Has she shown any behavior of laying? If she doesn't reabsorb the eggs & needs to lay them hopefully she wont have any trouble. As for medication, if...

    Just Found Out My Male Beardie Nova is Actually a Female with possible eggs

    Hello! How is your girl doing today? A lot of them do tend to reabsorb follicles for some reason. If that does happen, you might need to give some milk thistle for a short period to help with her liver. It is a bit hard on the liver due to the influx of cholesterol from the yolks having to...

    Just Found Out My Male Beardie Nova is Actually a Female with possible eggs

    Hello, I apologize for the delayed response. Your dragon does have eggs/follicles indeed so definitely a female. Do you know how far along she is in development? Her calcium levels at the moment aren't real high which is surprising since she is developing eggs. Do you have a liquid...
