I took Spike to the vet. The infection from two old bite wounds spread into his jaw bone and into the rest of his body. He has two tonsil-like masses in his throat that are so swollen with infection that they are making it harder for him to breathe. We started him on antibiotic injections immediately. If that doesn't work, then my vets may surgically remove the abscesses. Hopefully all of this will be enough to save his life. :(
Just one more reason male beardies should NOT be put together when they are adults. If they grow up together and are related, that is one thing. If they are not-- DO NOT PUT THEM TOGETHER.
Feeling heartsick over this.
