I think it is ill. It is hard to say if the Baytril knocked out the infection if she had one. Usually it takes several doses over a period of time to clear up the infection. Also, there is a great probability that she has parasites. I would definitely get her to the vet that sounded a little more knowledgeable.



I know it is hard with this species because so many vets don't know much about them but most are willing to look up what they need. The diagnosis & treatment of parasites, infection, and other health issues is going to be the same as other reptiles so they still should be able to handle that part. The main concern I have is that they don't give ivamectin as there have been cases where that has killed MHDs.



At any rate, once the MHD is laying on the ground if it isn't diagnosed & treated it is not likely that you will be able to nurse it back on your own so you do need to see a vet.
