Reptile Care
Reptiles also need yearly checkups to stay healthy. We’ll be happy to answer your questions regarding your reptile’s care and offer feeding, housing, and handling recommendations tailored to their needs.
If your reptile shows any abnormal signs such as weight loss, abnormal skin shedding, or difficulty breathing, call us immediately. Reptiles can develop infections, oral inflammation, and other harmful conditions. A thorough reptile exam includes:
-
Physical exam (annual)
-
Fecal testing
-
Annual blood testing
-
Microbiological testing
-
Radiographs/X-rays
Care for Other Exotic Species
It can be difficult for keepers of more unique exotic species to find a qualified exotic veterinarian. At Welleby, we’re trained to see all species, including primates, exotic canines/foxes, exotic cats, skunks, kinkajous, and crocodilians. Each species has its own unique needs when it comes to veterinary and routine care. We understand that your safety, the safety of your animal, and your healthcare team’s safety are all paramount.
Please schedule an appointment so we can ensure you and your animal have the best possible experience with us at Welleby Veterinary Hospital. Get started today by calling us at (954) 748-2002.
