My Male Veiled was doing a similar thing and the VET was certain of MBD, we did calcium drops, baytril jsut in case and I hand feed him for 2 months. while slowly getting him to work his tongue little by little. the biggest change I made was my lighting and temps. I had spiral based UV Lights...
I am going to completly theorize on this one... Moth or flying insect close to a lamp of some kind, her basking lamp maybe? she launched her tongue for it, burned her tongue VERY badly tried to retract in agony, the lamp fell on her face burning her face bad... bad sign about her eyes. without...
I have a 18X30X30 waiting for me at the store this evening. I will pick it up in the morning. YAY! All aluminum screen! the main reason for the glass one was no one in town had a screen one and he was so tiny when we got him, plus this winter was sooooooo cold I would not have been able to keep...
Wow, That looks like she got burned pretty bad... Or that is mouth rott (not likely though). Does she ever open her Eyes now? she may have been blinded by what ever burnt her.

I have been gently massaging his abdomen every few hours and he finally unloaded a massive amount of stool... Both urates(white calcified chunks?) and softish but well formed fecals. Let's see if he starts to feel a bit better.
I have forgotten tomention I noticed no poop in two days. felt his abdomen felt a slight tight. massaged it gently. He did eat one rather LARGE King Worm that suprised me when he dove for it when Iwas picking through them. could this have impacted him and would these symptoms suggest a possible...
I have been using Fluker's Orange Complete Cricket Diet, and some cat food on occasion (Royal Canin). In the worms Meal and Wood I have been dusting a light load of Vitamins. As for Vitamins I am using you are right they both have D3, so I will stop using the multivite and use the repto cal it...
Hi everyone. Thanks for the late night responses. I had tried to locate a vet at this time of night and a Sunday, but apparently up here in the San Francisco bay area there are not many reptile specialized vets let alone emergency vets. He is resting peacefully at the moment but hanging uside...
