iwi[bleep]wasrainin Oct 27, 2003 09:49 PM

I thought i already posted this, but i cant seem to find it..

anywho, the story..

Charlie, my year old bearded dragon seems to have swallowed a rubberband. a tiny one, but a rubberband no less. that was two days ago and she hasnt pooped since.. she seems to be acting okay and just as active and what not as usual, but it doesnt seem right that i havent seen any smelly poopies in her cage lately... im about to give her a bath, and maybe thatll free some goodies, but i dont know what else to do.. i dont believe there is a reptile vet near me, i live in fargo, north dakota.. anyone have any suggestions??

Please help!!

Our beardie "Puff" did the same thing awhile back. I tried to grab it, but it was to late! I watched her closely thenext few days and she pooped it out! It didn't seem to bother her.
