Urgent Care :: SOMETHING IS WRONG!!!

[larqw]

Toutolina is really active, eats right...basks every day BUT when he comes off his basking ramp, he always spits up red stuff!! What is it???? I thought maybe it was force from jumping into the water, so I took him down myself when he was ready to come down and the was still red stuff. WHAT IS IT????????

I'm not sure, but if you are certain it's not food he has eaten, then it definitely merits a vet visit. See if you can collect some of the red stuff for the vet to analyze.

If it is not food it could be blood. Try and collect some of the "red stuff" and take him to the vet.

[larqw]

It definitely isn't something he ate...
But it's going to be nearly impossible to collect the red stuff - as soon as they're out, they're gone. What do you think could be the cause?

[industrial_girl_2000]

Is the red stuff a liquid or is it solid pieces of something?

[larqw]

tiny little pieces of things...not liquid

[imderanged]

maybe pick him up off the doc and put him inot a tupperware to catch the "stuff"?

[ScrewZoo]

i really hope hes ok. good luck, maybe mites?

[larqw]

THANK YOU ALL!!!
I'm getting ready for school...that's why I took so long to reply BUT Toutolina is doing fine! The red stuff are gone...so, it will remain a mystery. I just hope it never happens again.
