HELP NEEDED - Juvenile Water Monitor Seems Weak

mark33 Mar 03, 2004 03:38 PM

I have a juvenile water monitor that has not been the same for the last couple of days. I fed him some gold fish a few days ago that he vomited. He has not been the same since. He seems to sleep most of the day in his water dish, and when I take him out, he only keeps his eye open for a few seconds and then closes them again. PLEASE HELP!

Sounds to me like he needs a vet, not peoples opinions from the forum.

Thank you, but I was not looking for opinions, just help. Was also hoping to see if anyone else had similar problems with their water monitors. I will take him to the vet, and hopefully get him feeling better. Thanks Again!
