Hombre started limping around 8pm yesterday (saturday). ive been looking for vets that can look at degus. so far the only place i can find thats open is animal care centre 24 hr but the exotic vet is only there at 850 pm and i have a cop curfew (got in trouble with the law) so i cant leave my house after 10 pm (its 230 am) so i have to wait till tomorrow night at the earliest. i got a list of about 8 different places that i'm going to call. ive been researching on the internet and only 2 are open on sundays. the one i found a while back in case anything like this did happen isnt open sunday. so i am in a panic and will be waking up at 8am and calling around if anyone from sask sees this please help!!!!!!!!

Dont panic too much I recently had a limping goo and a lot of the time the advice is rest and time take Hombres wheel away and give him a few days rest if you can have a feel of both legs and see if you can feel any differences that could indicate a break. Is he eating and drinking normally? as that can be an indication as to how much pain he is in.

Hes still eating and drinking normally comes out for treats only thing that is off about him is he doesnt come out right away for treats I have to stick my hand in and get him up I think he just needs sleep at this point but I normally shake the bag and he bolta out so I was a little worried he might have passed I know thats a bit over board but he has me worried I suppose your right I should wait a few days and see if he gets better on his own it would be less stress on him and my wallet thank you. I removed hia wheel and moved his food and water to the bottom floor of the cage and his dust as well if you look at my other threads there is a picture of the foot ( poor quality tho) if you could try to determine if you think its external or internal Sorry about spelling and grammar as I am using my phone
