Hi all. Thanks in advance for any help/advice in case I forget to say so after the novel I post. I got my 1st beardie as a tiny baby about 2 months ago and have learned so much and corrected my mistakes in the first month and thought my girl was healthy and thriving. She’s grown so much! But she vomited either late last night or early this morning. My gut tells me that the squash I gave her yesterday afternoon was bad. It didn’t smell bad when I was preparing her salad, but it was a bit mushy. I turned her lights off around 8:30pm last night, when she was already in her hide sleeping, and her enclosure was clean and clear. Lights on around 8am this morning and there was what looked like a full chunk of squash in the area where she poops. I knew right away it was vomit, and was alarmed, so I took her out to check her and she had little orange stains on her mouth, which I cleaned off with a warm cloth. I put her back in right away to warm up for the morning, and fed her about 3 hrs later. She ate approx 10 dusted dubias (a lot for her actually but she did not have any insects yesterday, just salad). She’s currently in an early shed again, but not acting differently otherwise. The temp in her basking spot is a steady 104, and she had a bath yesterday after her salad. I’ve been keeping a close eye on her and waiting for a bowel movement. She poops daily, but not yet today. Is there anything additional I should be doing? Should I calm down or be alarmed? I’m very worried I have tons of pics if needed, including pics of temp reads and of course, pics of my little girl.
