This is Gumbo K, the loveliest Blue tongued skink I've ever known, who passed away this past weekend due to a URI that got too out of control to fix. She was 4 years old and she was awesome and chill. <3 RIP, you fat little wench. <3

I wasn't able to until after she passed, and I was curious as to why, since her last couple of days (and even the night before she passed), she was incredibly active. The big thing was sneezing, but she lost appetite as well, and she had mucous around her nose. It all stopped around her last couple of days, but I guess by that time she was just too weak to survive. She became unresponsive with uneven breathing, then she passed shortly after.
The breeder (also a friend of mine) knew what was wrong before I got her, but didn't think it was bad enough to worry about, or else she would have kept Gumbo longer until she either got well, or passed.

AH that makes lots more sense. Epecially with the symptoms listed. Especially with reptiles, usually by the time they start showing bad symptoms it is sometimes too far to do anything.
Blueys do make amazing pets. I've got a 8 year old female. I can't wait for her to be my children's first pet eventually :)
