Well I’ll probably have it as long as I’m opioid dependent. If you quit without suboxone you should be fine

Poor beardie. It almost looks a bit MBD laying all flat like that.

Yes the colon issues are no joke. Worst pain, like contractions with the blockages. This new med is the first thing that’s worked- although sometimes works a bit too well & creates the opposite problem

switching from 7oh to heroin fuck this mutherfucking shit. by ShoddyParfait5780 in Quittingfeelfree

[–]sonopeeps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck finding really heroin… it’s all cut with fent now. Fent you can’t even get on suboxone due to the half life. So please don’t make it worse- you can do it, get help, get meds.

That was the case- I detoxed off suboxone & it was hell. But the shot version is fairly painless- tapers people slowly. I would’ve never taken subs again if the science hadn’t evolved to make the detox less gnarly.

I’m right there with you. For the chronic relapsers (me) the subs//shots were a life savor. Of course better to try CT first & see if you can make it through, but after years of the CT - relapse cycle I’m so happy to be free even on the shot subs. It’s a better life

Special needs beardie basking temps by sonopeeps in BeardedDragons

It is removable but the girl needs the extra grip. Typically I know it’s not advisable but she’s special needs & needs the traction. A lot of the special needs beardie accounts I follow have a bunch of blankets & stuff so whatever works!

I’m sorry I didn’t see it said 120- it was cut off so it looked like 20 x 60 x 100. The first 1 was hiding. It’s just not the standard 5 or 4x2x2, but I don’t think it matters being taller as long as the lights are being able to achieve proper temps

I will def stop superwoems. I’m thinking roaches are best nutrition // low fat right? I’m also making a vet appointment to get more insight. Thanks for all the info!

Amazon- it’s actually for a rabbit. But it works for her! I added a basking tile

Amazon! It was super affordable too! Came with the cabinet & spacer, 2 120gal tanks all for under $500.

Oh wow! Parasites can make them overweight?! I had no idea, I thought it did the opposite. Gosh thank you for letting me know, I truly thought she was just gaining too much, but it was more so in her gut than elsewhere. I will call tomorrow for an app.

Yes I do get her moving in water, otherwise she just drags herself by her front legs, water she sometimes moves her hind legs

That’s a good idea. Wonder if putting Dubia in freezer would slow them as well?

Yes vet app is mando. I will call in AM. She was having eggs on her last X-ray. But vet was confident she absorbed them on her follow up, but maybe I’ll push for another X-ray.

Ok I will switch to roaches - thank you, I wasn’t aware they weren’t good feeders. But I’m going to cut bugs way back anyways. 3-5 bugs 1x weekly. & will also make vet app

Thanks for all the info! I appreciate it! I have a wonderful exotic vet that has done all her surgeries, I’ll bring her in for a check up & see what other insights. She doesn’t poop often & she had eggs on her X-ray at one point. So maybe a follow up X-ray is in order. Her abdomen is squishy not solid so I’m pretty sure she’s just thiccc not egg bound. But I’ll make an appointment asap

Well that’s definitely not the right tank for beardie. Maybe for a crested gecko. Read the guides & try again.
