I thought he was doing better because he was moving around more, but I looked at him today and one side of his mouth looks kinda swollen and whitish, the way I would picture mouth rot.
One of his eyes is also really swollen and glazed over almost white. When I picked him up he pooped all over me but it was more clear oozy stuff than solid.
Does anyone know a vet that sees herps on Sunday in the Norman or OKC, OK area? I know of one that I can bring him to first thing tomorrow morning.

He came to the pet store in a batch of 4, two of which died there. I got the third and someone else bought the 4th, so they may have been sick.
He shed once while I had him (~3 weeks), and he seemed okay at first. When I picked him up he bit my glove and barked at me, but after that it just seemed to go downhill. He never moved much or was very agressive. He still struggled and opened his mouth when I picked him up today to look at his mouth, but it just kinda flared up and he was pretty still afterwards.

Thanks!

It sounds like it may be a severe case of mouthrot.Usually if you call your vet they will have an emergency number you can call on the recording that says they are closed

Thanks I will try that.
I have to mention that the mouth rot is on the right side of the mouth, but it's his left eye that's swollen.

What type of substrate are you using? I dont know too much about the advanced stages of mouthrot, maybe someone else can jump in here and help you out more. Let us know what happens though..hopefully you'll be able to get him to a vet today

The coconut stuff you can buy in the brick.

When I used the coconut bark wth my water dragons, I could not get rid of their mouthrot. They had gotten it from another waterdragon from a store, I brought him home and had him quarantined he had signs of mouthrot. I kept him in quaratine, but some on had used the same spoon to feed them al so everyone got it and I lost all 3. I should havetaken them ou of the coconut substrate rght away, but dd't know that then. My vet tred, but they were too little and too sick.

I suggest removing the coconut substrate as Barnkat said its no good. Paper towels may be your best bet right now so you can check his fecal matter and make sure its healthy once you get him to the vet.

I talked to my vet and she said to soak him in warm water and put some betadine on the mouth for now, and leave his eye be until I get to her in the morning. She also recommened trying to handfeed him a cricket, which he wouldn't eat.
He's still very active and I will find out tomorrow morning what exactly is wrong with him.

Thanks for the tips!

good luck!
