Can anyone help? One of my females has layed 14 eggs so far this year & has lost loads of weight (-15g)! Now she has throwing up a few times & today she throw
up a shed! Her poo is a bit runny & smelly! Could it be anything else apart from crypto?
Any help would be very greatful!
Thanks

could be parasites also so you should get her a vet appointment ASAP and take a fresh sample of her stool to be checked.Good luck and I hope she gets better.

She hasnt ate since she throw up shed!
She does not seem intrested in anything!
(I took her away from the male as soon as she was losen weight but she kept laying eggs every 15-20 days!) So not alot i could do to stop her laying!

14 this year?? isn't that a little much??

and yes I agree...seeing a vet sounds like a good idea.

14 clutches would be a lot. Most of my females have laid 14 eggs by now including one who has laid 22 eggs in 12 clutches. I do think the vet is a good idea also.

Yer my female has only had 8 clutches (14eggs) in total! Im just waiting for my new m/scope to be deliverd to do the fecal tests! Just worried when i saw the shed bundle as thats the early signs of Crypto! Is there anything else that would make them bring up shed? Hope its not Crypto i could do without that in my racks!

Regardless it sounds like a parasite. i would get the fecal done and go from there.

Personally, i love Reptaid and have had success using the product against parasites as well as boosting appetites in geckos and bearded dragons
