I went outside to check on my bearded dragon who was in an outside enclosure in the sun, Half of the enclosure usually has a cover over it but the cover had been blown off, so he was in the full blown heat for an hour, I ran over and went to pick him up, and he is completely stiff, arms, legs locked in the position he was lying in. Eyes were closed.
Rushed him inside and took him into the air conditioning, placed him in a sink with some water to try and get a regular temperature back, he slightly opens his mouth, so I have been slowly tipping cold water into his mouth, which he drinks. It's been 25 minutes, and no limbs appear to loosen., the tip of his nose is slightly darker, possibly burnt. Eyes are getting more and more responsive, but other then that, and the drinking, no improvements.
Is there anything I can do at all to help him while I am waiting for my vet's appointment, he is 3 years 10 months old. His left arm is able to me moved VERY slightly, which is an improvement.
Feel free to flame away, but please offer me some advice first.
