We took X-rays of Lizard Dude at work yesterday, and then I took the x-rays and her to the vet. I haven't been able to get a fecal lately because she just won't go when I am home or when the vet is open (maybe this weekend ). The vet looked at the x-rays and said that her liver is enlarged, and there is something going on in her lungs. Lizard Dude's mouth is bit yellow.
The vet said that there are MANY things that could cause her liver to enlarge, but the only way to know for sure what it is would be to do a biopsy, and that would mean sacrificing the lizard (not an option here). She put Dude on Baytil (? can't quite read her writing) for a month. She wants a fecal ASAP (working on it), and a weight check in two weeks. Dude went from 226.5 grams late February to 224 grams yesterday (she comes from petite genes). I have also put her in a hospital tank for treatment.

to get her to poop try putting him in yoru bath tub and fill ti up with water and then when he starts swimming around he will go, and then just use like a small fish net to pick it up and put it in a baggy and put it in the fridge or freezer not quite sure which, maybe someone else can help...

Hi
not put it in freezer then they can not exame the poop very well.
think so fresh as posibal is best you can bring the poop in a ziplocked bag.
englarded liver is ofthend a dieet problem to much life prey items .
they need more grens then.
