Cheeto visited Dr Kelwin yesterday for his health check and Adenovirus screening. Cheeto is a leatherback mutation of the central bearded dragon which means his scales are much smoother and where he gets his striking orange colouring. He knew exactly when the camera was out to strike a pose!

🧡Adenovirus is a highly contagious virus that is common in captive reptiles. Thanks to regular screening we can prevent of the spread of this virus and aid in further research! Although there is currently no cure, early detection is key to start supportive care for our scaley friends. Enquire about testing at your next health check 🧡

Ever wonder how to weigh your piggies at home? Sometimes our vets ask for daily weigh ins at home and the easiest way to do so is with a set of basic kitchen scales and a container to keep your piggies safe. Thank you Mr Vinnie for showing us a very cute example in consultation 🥰

⚖️ Hint ⚖️ This method can be used on most pets! When weighing birds or wiggly reptiles, make sure to have a secure container with ventilation to prevent escapees! Plus is a good way to monitor healthy weights at home 💚

🐾 Meet the Team –Dr Kelwin! 🐾

Say hello to Dr Kelwin, one of our awesome vets!

Dr Kelwin is one of our newest members to The Exotics Vet team. He graduated in 2024, with 2 years prior experience as a veterinary nurse in other exotics practices. He has been passionate about exotic animals since childhood (especially birds and reptiles!) – and yes, we’ve got the adorable throwback photo with a pet Aldabra tortoise to prove it 🐢

Favourite part of the job?
“Being able to save animals’ lives and seeing them recover is definitely the most rewarding part.”

What is your favourite species?
Reptiles!

Pets at home:
Fuji (Border Collie) and Aji (Domestic Short Hair) – best friends with a very wholesome bond 🐶🐱
Aji is so obsessed with Fuji that grooming sessions are non-negotiable!
Kelwin also has a veiled chameleon and a zero bearded dragon back home in Hong Kong.

Fun facts:
• Loves outdoor adventures – fishing, camping, and just about every sport 🎾
• Big fan of classic Japanese cars (previously owned a 1987 Supra MKIII 🚗)
• And he once treated a flamingo with bumblefoot while volunteering at a wildlife sanctuary!

🧠 Dr Kelwin's myth to bust:
Reptiles are not low-maintenance pets! They need very specific husbandry, lighting, and diet to thrive.

Dream mythical patient? 🔮
A phoenix… for feather plucking? Though it might just solve the problem itself?

Stay tuned to meet more of the team! 👀
