Breathing problems

[CharleneG]

Hey everyone

I’m new here, I found this website in my desperation.

My dragon is showing difficulty to breathe looks like an upper respiratory infection. Though I’m not a vet. Just through research.

I can’t get to a vet till tomorrow morning. Sadly I just don’t have the funds for the weekend call out charge.

I’ve been doing to electrolyte water bathe
He’s been spoon fed as not eating
I seen a nebuliser may be a help is there anything more I can do till the morning

Is the dragon wheezing? Any discharge from nose or mouth? Any crackling noise? Please go over your surface basking temps and how your getting them- no stick ons digital probe thermometers are the most accurate - uvb? Coil long tube fixture? Please no more baths too much humidity if it's a RI-- keep temps around 80 during the night to keep immune system up - NO ENEMAS at the vet please-- No lights on at night use a ceramic heat emitter please

He’s not wheezy, he was gasping earlier today. No discharge from nose or mouth he did have stringy saliva. No cackling. I will get all thermo updated.

He has a long tube uvb and a uvb heat lamp combined.

Lights go off at 8pm.

Please post a pic of the UVB --- basking bulbs and UVB bulbs should be different bulbs - I am confused about your long tube /heat combined bulb
