Hello - I'm new here, first time BD owner. Jumpy is 11-1/2 months and we've had her since she was 4 months. In April, had a vet check and clean bill of health. Lately she's been lethargic and laying under her hammock all day, not interested really in food and last night, she lost the use of her back legs. I took her to the reptile vet and after X-rays and blood work, they could not determine what was wrong with her. they suspect possibly pneumonia, ruled out MDB and her blood work showed healthy levels of all calcium, etc. They are treating her now in hospital, for pneumonia and sending her blood out to a specialist to see if it's possibly leukemia. Anyway, they sampled her stool and it was grey-ish paste. I don't have loose substrate and we can't figure out why this might be.
Has anyone on this forum experienced anything similar with their dragon and maybe has some insight for me? She is in the hospital until at least Saturday and she's being given injected antibiotics at this point.
thanks for any insight you may have.
