    I always love how your tortoises and lizards respond to you. I never thought reptiles would respond like other pets. Thank you for educating everyone on the critters. They are fascinating. I am so happy to see Lumpy digging. I think he is very happy.

She does struggle from time to time with a bit of a snotty nose, but with the mycoplasma, she is always going to have mucus. As long as it remains clear and doesn’t become overwhelming for her to breathe, she does fine. The humidity plays a big part in helping her clear out the mucus in her mouth and nostrils. She does see her vet every 6 months right now for check ups. We did go through about 4 to 5 months of treatment.

    I’ve had mycoplasma repeatedly in the past and I have never felt as ill. Only thing I can do to fight it is keep my immune system healthy. Once I burn out due to workplace/life stress, it’s like my body begins to fall apart and it’s a quick downward slide. I feel the pain of the poor animals who have this, as they can’t tell you what they are feeling or how to help them.

He doesn't loose much weight at all over the winter but he bulks up as the season changes and eats a ton the last month or so he is outside....Peace

It was another hard to treat bacteria. We treated him for several months. He’s a lot better now, still has some mucus and is finally eating consistently. He was 6lbs when I got him, now he’s about 11lbs. Still on the under weight side. Vet thinks he had this infection for a long time and has caused permanent damage. I still keep him in his own area with no other reptiles near him. Sort of permanent quarantine.
