I took my dragon "Hoochie" to the vet yesterday. Spent $85 bucks too. He examined her and did an xray(film) and saw nothin no blockage anywhere. BUT she still hasn't pooped in like a week yall. HE said he could do an enema BUT I have read how dragons can die from those so I didn't want him doing that. He gave me some can food to feed her (force feed is necessary) it looks like a diet catfood, and 2 diff types of vitamins. He said if she wasn't better in like 3-5 days (my judgement) then to bring her back. He also said there is some type of lax like stuff and it starts with a K that I could try after we try this for a few days.
I didn't have to force feed her. I think she remembers how that felt when the vet dude made her open her mouth haha. SHe is eating that stuff just fine too and still no poop.
