Also can I ask what are you using to check out the temps.

Get yourself one of these things I can't praise them enough I wouldn't mind betting your temps aren't what you think they are.

They are kept in my living room. Trust me the temp in here can get too warm especially in the summer cos the sun's shines straight at the house allday. I'm actually worried when it gets hot that it will be too warm in the living room.

Sounds like a respitory problem, especially with the gaping mouth, one of the best Reptile vets is in Edinburgh, can't remember what it's called, but it is part of the Vets University?
As Gordon mentioned temps need to be about 30-32c all over the table and the nebuliser with f-10 twice a day will help. Definetly needs the vet though ASAP.

Do you mean this place http://www.ed.ac.uk/vet/services/sma...nimal-practice or otherwise known as the Dick vet school

warm and dry, bathed in critical care formula good also with nebuliser treatment if can get hold of one. Not a nice time at all, and trouble is the stress can be worse than the illness, hope it works out. I still don't get why such a species who can tolerate great cold can pick these type of things up and so suddenly too even when everything is done right. CB

Any update on this little one.
