    Dragon shakes his head when swallowing food

    Hello, He's good. No signs of the issue for past week. Swallowing food without any head shakes. As for supplements. Is this a good amount of supplements on veggies? And new enclosure is on the way. I'll replace 90x45x45 to 120x60x60 to provide him a required distance to the lamps according to...

    Will do in next few days. Just hypothetical question: Can too much UVB lead to hypercalcemia?

    Dragon shakes his head when swallowing food

    Current distance from the heightest basking point in hot area is something about 10-11 inches (30cm). Cold area though has no direct vertical UV lights: enclosure is "divided" by 2/3 + 1/3 to provide a cold and hot areas. Do you think 1-2 inches make a big difference in UVB for the dragon? He...

    Dragon shakes his head when swallowing food

    Hey again, Cal, Cal+D3 + Vitamins. In total 3 times a week, powder ZooMed. He has been doing that since last mid summer. He did brumate for 4 months and after waking up it still the same. I use T5 Arcadia Pro set and replace lamps each 8 months. It's mounted on "ceiling" of his enclosure, so...

    Dragon shakes his head when swallowing food

    Hello again, Yes, he's still doing that when he swallows food with head turned 45-90 degress to any side. When his head is looking straight - everything is fine. Also I noticed that "second" and all next swallowing are also good, with no shaking

    Sure! He has a good basking spot, few places to hide and proper shade in the opposite corner. Thank you!

    Thanks for having your time on that. Just wanted to confirm, 00:18, can you see that dragon "shakes" it's head during swallowing? I hope video shows that properly

    Dragon shakes his head when swallowing food

    Should not be that case - he's doing that since the last year. He was brumating for 4 months and I hoped that this thing will go away, but it's not yet https://files.fm/u/3tgj3p8we

    Unknown spots on the leg

    Only 2 dubia roaches which are not harmful to him. But I'll try to clean foot with toothbrush next time he has a bath. Thank you. Will update this thread once I have any updates
