Lizards

Though your new lizard may be acting and looking normal, they require the same annual and midyear exams that dogs and cats get. Nutrition-related disorders and husbandry related diseases are common in lizards. Though these animals are often easy to keep, they each have quite different housing and nutritional requirements, and if they are not set up correctly, can often result in a very sick lizard or even in death. We can help you avoid these problems. Call us to set up a husbandry consultation so we can discuss how to help keep your lizard healthy. We also offer a lower exam fee for health checks, as prevention of disease, and catching disease early is critical in treating and correcting issues in lizards. In addition, we can provide you with information and handouts on appropriate enclosures, lighting and heating requirements, sanitation, and disease prevention.
