My anole lizard ate Eco Earth bark. Will it digest or cause blockage?

Soak her in a warm 50/50 solution of water and unflavored PediaLyte. Gently massage her abdomen during the soak to stimulate defecation. If it doesn't help, Baby should be examined by your veterinarian or a vet experienced in treating reptiles. I wouldn't recommend mineral oil until after you try an extended soak and a veterinary visit.

A dehydrated or cold anole will not eat. Make sure ambient and basking temps in the enclosure are species appropriate. Soak him in a warm 50/50 solution of water and unflavored PediaLyte to warm him up and rehydrate him. Offer appropriate sized prey (crickets, mealworms, dubia roaches, silk worms). Nothing bigger than the space between his eyes. Gut load them for 24 hours prior to offering to maximize nutritional value. Have him examined by your veterinarian or a vet experienced in treating reptiles if he does not regain his appetite. Frequently, these little guys are infected with intestinal parasites.

One or two pellets will likely pass through uneventfully. Monitor for lethargy, loose droppings or loss of appetite. You can soak him in a warm 50/50 solution of water and unflavored PediaLyte. During the soak, gently massage his abdomen from front to back to stimulate defecation. Consider using slate, reptile carpeting or plain paper towels as a substrate in the future to prevent accidental ingestion.

A small pebble should pass without an issue. Monitor for lethargy, loss of appetite or straining to defecate. See your veterinarian or a vet experienced in treating reptiles and amphibians if necessary.

Thanks for reaching out. It is recommended to see a veterinarian as if the piece is large, can cause an obstruction. But also, slate tends to have sharp edges that could lacerate internal organs. A veterinary visit is recommended ASAP. Good luck.

Depending on the size of the piece of tape, there is cause for concern. A small section has a good chance of passing through uneventfully. A larger piece carries with it the risk of obstruction. Monitor Athena for the next few days. Hopefully, she will pass the tape without any problems. Daily soaks in a warm 50/50 solution of water and unflavored PediaLyte may help things move along faster. If she becomes lethargic, stops eating or doesn't defecate then have her examined by your veterinarian or a vet experienced in treating reptiles.

Hi, Most likely he will not get impacted, but I would watch him closely for the next few days. I would suggest switching the substrate to something less hazardous like yesterday's news or artificial turf. It may not look as nice as the sand, but is safer. P.S. What a nice pattern Snuggles has :)
