About Jessica Birchett Expertise I can answer most questions of husbandry and a fairly wide variety of species-specific questions. If you`re trying to decide on a reptile, have recently gotten one and found yourself in over your head, or are a long time collector and just want to brag about your most recent breeding successes, I can probably help you out or at least point you in the right direction.
Experience I've had around 50 reptile-years of experiance with a wide variety of snakes and lizards. I specialize in animal nutrition. I have spent more time with boids (boas and pythons) than coloubrids (kings, milks, and corns) and the majority of my lizard experiance is with tropicals. I have not worked with hot snakes so I would be unqualified to answer questions regarding them.
Question My Bearded Dragon vomited this morning and turned from a healthy
brown to a sickly yellow. I am not sure what is wrong with him and lately
he will not accept any food. His substrate is "Carefresh Pet Bedding"
and my Bearded Dragon is a full grown adult (about 6-7 years old). I
feed him a combination of lettuce, broccoli, carrots, crickets, and beef
(all sprinkled with a liquid viatmin spray). I also gave him a warm bath
and he will not drink his water. Thank you for your time.
Answer Sick animals *always* need to go to the vet. Any number of health problems could account for this turn to the worse and a vet will be able to run the tests necessary to determine what's wrong. Turn up the ambient heat in his enclosure a few degrees and take him in tomorrow. Best wishes and I hope he gets better soon.
