Fingers Crossed For You Bret. Hopefully Tony Pulls Through.
don't have pics of enclosure handy. but 4x2x2 shared with 3 others. day globe (basking) and night globe (red) on separate (dimming) thermostats. day temp 38 hot end, cool end varies depending on outside temp, but usually between 28-30. been a warmish day in melb. night temp 28-30. UV globe, 6 months old, with 12 month life at new.
He is 8 month's old. biggest and was healthiest and had biggest appetite of all the beardies (definite male, as confirmed by others). vegies (carrot, cumcuber, lettuce, bok choy) most days. woodie's daily, dusted with vitamin powder prob twice a week. also use a dragon juvi pellet in with his vegies (daily), and a vitamin spray 2-3 times a week. have observed him eating all of these things (again, biggest and healthiest dragon by far till now, has never looked slightly of colour!)
I think the main problem with lettuce is it causes the runs and has no nutritional value, i dont think it is toxic though i could be wrongHi, I hope things are looking up, I've never heard of a spray so I'm interested to know what that is and someone could correct me if I'm wrong, but Lettuce is a BIG No No?? I've read and been told that, plus I'm pretty sure I know some people who have fed lettuce and their dragon's didn't last long.
Hi Brett
Sorry to hear this said news mate,its not 1 from me is it ?
Hows he going now and did you get him to the vets. ?
I was also wondering about the amount of vit spray u are using.
I think you should be cutting it back to 1 spray per week if at all.
cheers
Greg, so pessimistic!! (realistic, be it otherwise called)
Hoping he got it to the vet in time for copious amounts of antibiotics for a possible lung infection, or copious amounts of fluids for dehydration problems due to possible psychological bullying??
We've got to live in hope.....................:?

im sure shane simpson would have asked many many questions , but when u go back it wouldnt huryt to give the spray bottle to shane and see what he says about it .Its good to see such dedication in getting care for Tony. I would do the same thing. Geez!! Bloody animals what they do to us!!! hahahaha Have been watching the post...Iam sure we are all interested to hear the outcome and hopefully the cause. If you havent spoken to the vet about the vitamin spray, it might be worth calling him and telling him. Its good that vet knows everything.
