Hi-- I have a eastern Hermanns that's almost a year old. Its been doing well I've had it two months now eats really well is active running around the whole enclosure-no problems.
Tonight he came out of his hide suddenly when normally he's fast asleep (he will typically go to bed around 5 and stay asleep in till the morning (wake up 6:30)) and he was what looked like grasping for air and it seemed he really could not breath so I gave him a warm soak because I didn't know what else I could do, when I put him back he went right into his hide for bed.
(I look videos of him in his hide before I put him in the bath and then one of him in the bath)
is this urgent or a problem at all? should I take him to the vet tomorrow or is this something I should wait and see till Monday.
I appreciate the help if my little guys sick I want to make sure I act as fast as I can so it doesn't get worse-
-madi
