    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    Ahh gotcha. This forum was a little easier to navigate, so I've been researching on this one more. I will do that.

    Which forum should I post pics for her in?

    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    My daughter picked him out from PetSmart. I am just not sure about him either, but at this point I am very invested! There is an exotic animal vet about an hour from us in the city. I will just have to find a way to get there without the kids and do it safely, because we are in a pretty high...

    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    Here are a few different pics to see him. Since I have been syringe feeding him, he has had a couple of poops. I am also trying to make sure he is hydrated by putting drops of water on his nose, which he will lick. He just pays not a bit of attention to any food. When he first came he would eat...

    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    I am wondering what an ideal weight might be for our guy? I am not sure how old he was when we got him, but we have had him for 4 weeks now and he was going through a shed when we got him, so I don't know his exact age. He is 5 grams now. We are getting roaches today, but he is still not even...

    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    Still offering crickets and calciworms with his salad. Couldn't find local dubias so I am going to order them. I made a slurry based on a lot of things I looked at online. It has crickets and worms, his greens, some sweet potato, squash, his calcium and vitamins. He is at least standing now in...

    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    Just wanted to update to see if there was anything I am missing for our little guy. Rubbing with a super soft toothbrush on his eye with warm water. It is still closed, but I think I am noticing that he is opening it easier more often than he was. UVB light is good and 9 inches from his basking...

    You know, he did start to shed right after we brought him home and this started shortly after that. Maybe it just didn’t loosen up like it should? There is still no discharge or crustiness and I’m rinsing with saline.

    This is the eye. The other is fine. He does open this eye, just for short periods of time. It almost seems like the top lid doesn’t want to open all the way?

    Ok will do. They were out of roaches, but they were getting a shipment. I think someone in my town actually has colonies, so I am going to try to find out. I'll get that probe right away to see if I need to change anything there. I really appreciate it!

    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    Think this is better until I get a clamp for the light? I measured and it is 9 inches from the UVB to the top of that basking spot with it set up like this. He is still not eating. We are giving him greens (he's liked kale, collard greens, and recently mustard greens) as well as yellow squash...

    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    I just wanted to check and see if everything lighting wise seems ok. Right now we are in a 20 gallon tank, 14" Reptisun T5 HO on top of the mesh, Reptisun 50 watt basking bulb with UVA. Basking side is about 105 and cool side is about 85. We are planning to upgrade to a 55 gallon tank and we...

    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    Thanks so much! I will look into all of that! We got him right before the world shut down, so it has been tough trying to figure it all out!

    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    Ok, good. It's on top of the screen now. He is eating some veggies and we've seen him drinking, but no crickets at all for a few days. We've looked around for roaches or very small worms, but nobody nearby has any in stock right now.

    Baby Beardie not eating/eye problem

    We have it sitting across the length of the tank on top of the screen. I have seen about mounting them so that they are under the screen, but I wasn't sure how to do that. I plan on buying a larger one when we upgrade the tank.
