sneezing

Postby juliec1 » Sat May 11, 2013 3:06 pm

So my baby Tiny has been sneezing for couple of days and I am not sure what to think of it. His temp in the tank on the hot side veries daily on average 99 deg f. He is still on newspapers at least for another week. And since my big Sami almost never sneezes I'm getting worried. Any opionios or suggestions would be great. Thank you . Also he seems to have not as much stool but lots of pee (if that matters).

Do you see any bubbles or discharge in the nose or eyes when he sneezes or at all?

Has he been switched to a new substrate? Has he been buried in the substrate more?

some can be sneezey,not always a sign of trouble,but for peace of mind watch its breathing ect to and look for signs of watery eyes,and liquid /bubbles coming from nostrils when it sneezes,thats normally a sign of a respitory issue along with crackly breathing

if its just the odd sneeze and everything else seems normal probably nothing to worry about,basking temp sounds spot on,as for more wee than pooh,does it drink alot compared to eating,when they drink copiouslly they tend to pass a fair amount of it
