Hey, Thanks A TON to you guys/gals that helped w/ positive feedback. I REALLY needed it. My little girl has a vet appt. for Monday. I just hope they'll be able to diagnos something so we can get her back to 100% again.
But just to give some more insight on her surrondings and daily life:
Temps: 75-80 cool side, about 100 deg. hot side (basking)
She has an overhead heat lamp as well as a UTH. She uses them both about the same.
Substrate: well sifted playsand
Age: 1 1/2 yrs
Diet: crickets or superworms about 3x weekly. Either collard, mustard or turnip greens, or Kale, everyday, mixed w/ adult BD pellets(moistened).
Supplementation: all insects are always dusted w/ either T-Rex ICB or Rep-Cal Calcium w/ D3. I switch it up from time to time. I also add the Rep-Cal Vitamin dust as well. Veggies everyday are sprinkled w/ a little angel dust... (LOL, JUST kidding... : ) Their sprinkled w/ T-Rex VMF and occasionally VGF.
Day/Night cycle: 12 on 12 off, w/ a timer.
Recent treatments: about 6 months ago she was treated for coccidia. After treatment tested w/ low to no trace.
Questionable/Possible cause: She looked pregnant so I fed her about 3 pinkies in a 3 week span. This was about 1 1/2 months to 2 months ago. Still, at times, looks like she has eggs, but i've noticed no digging.
Note: shes also made a noise that sounded like she was trying to hack up something. So it's like shes gasping for air, and other times like shes trying to clear her airways (???). I'm sorry I can't be more descriptive.
I have tried the warm baths. But she started doing it again shortly afterward.
