    Sick Hognose :(
    I have a female western hognose that I bought back in July as a hatchling. She has refused a mouse fuzzy for the past 3 weeks and had seemed fine up until today when I checked on her. I found her lying upside down and not moving. I thought she was playing dead until I realized she had not been disturbed all day and had no reason to do so. When I picked her up she was not moving other than occasionally flicking her tongue and I could hardly see her body moving when she breathed. Any ideas what might be wrong with her?

    No ideas. She needs to go to a vet.

    Vet ASAP if you want to save her

    I took her to the UGA vet clinic yesterday. However, there was not much they could do. She is only 16 grams, so no blood tests could be done. They gave me antibiotics to inject in her daily in case it's bacterial, but they said if she does not improve within 15 days chances are she will need to be put down :(
