Limping leg

[stinax182]

My year old beardie is walking weird. It seems as though his right back leg is hurt because he will not put pressure on it. He can still move it and feel it though. He has a high output uvb light and gets powdered calcium and multi vitamin supplements twice a week. He eats collard greens, roaches, super worms, crickets, hornworms and wax worms. Could this be the beginning of mbd? I have not seen him injure it but he could have in his enclosure.

Could he have maybe fallen in his tank? Check his nails does it look like he broke one or snagged it on something?

He could have fallen in his enclosure. It's large enough with a lot of branches to climb on. I notice he's tender on his knee.

How's he doing today? If it's tender or swollen I would have a vet take a look at it, he may have sprained it or broken something.

Actually, it's much better. He must have just got it caught in between the branches. I cleared it out a little so hopefully he won't injure himself again. Thank you for asking

Glad he's doing better
