bloating....

lissag25 Oct 13, 2003 04:01 PM

dojo is bloated today.. very much so.. and i can't firgure out why.. she got a bath and still hasn't gone to the bathroom, she eats the right size crix, basking temp is 108, clean fecal on aug 17th...and everything she ate yesterday was good.. escarole, collards, squash,castus leaf, and pellets... today i put in a lil banana (which i never do).. could this have caused it.. she went to the bathroom yesterday but when i checked on her around noon today she is huge.. she looks ever so uncomfortable.. what do you think caused it??? she loves to eat and i wasn't gonna give her anymore food for today..i put her salad in her cage late last night and it was all gone around noon.. so i know she is eating.

any advice would be wonderful

Your et up sounds right, so that's even scarier. I'd get your beardie to a vet.
Parasites can also cause bloating..
