T-Rex Hydro-Life liquid is designed both as an electrolyte and amino acid (protein) support therapy for both dehydrated and anorexic reptiles.
T-Rex Hydro-Life has proved to be most efficient in the critical care of weak and sick insectivorous, carnivorous and omnivorous reptiles. It is useful for both hatchling and adults that are reluctant to feed, maintaining them in good condition until their general health improves. Easily administered and digested, it is an important tool maintaining fluid support while other treatment regimes are given time to work.
Veterinarians agree that the majority of reptile patients presented are in a state of severe starvation and dehydration. These patients are recognized by their sunken eyes, poverty lines (wrinkled skin) and protruding bones, as their store of body fat and muscle has been depleted. The reason for this is that reptiles generally give few symptoms of disease or malcontent with their living environment other than a refusal to feed or drink. Owners can now offer life saving support therapy for their reptiles in this situation by administering T-Rex Hydro-Life. This product is the quickest and most effective method for the positive restoration of body fluids, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins and essential electrolytic salts.
Many reptiles, including desert and marine species, but also tropical species such as Green Iguanas and other arboreal species, possess active salt glands to expel excess salt to assist them in water conservation. As a result, these species can often derive all or nearly all their fresh water needs from their food. However, if they fail to eat regularly, for whatever reason, then they are quickly at risk from dehydration and subsequent kidney damage. Additionally, many of these specialized species do not recognize standing water as drinkable and need water provided in a form compatible with their lifestyles in the wild, such as water droplets on vegetation or their own bodies. Rehydration of these species with T-Rex Hydro-Life will restore excess lost body salts and valuable nutrients during the convalescence period.
